A New York City police officer's skull was broken when he was shot Saturday while sleeping in his personal vehicle between shifts, but he is expected to fully recover, the city's new police commissioner said, calling the officer “lucky.” Commissioner Keechant Sewell, sworn in just hours earlier, told a news conference that the officer has a fractured skull and had undergone surgery at NewYork-Presbyterian hospital, where a doctor said the bullet missed vital structures in his head by millimeters after entering his temple.
