Officer Ryan Phinney - Atlanta PD
Injured Sept. 11, 1989
Form Object
 

My name is Ryan Patrick Phinney. I was born in Atlanta. I am a veteran of the United States Army Infantry, with 4 years active service, and I began working for the Atlanta Police Department in November 1986. I was injured in the line of duty on September 11, 1989.

I was involved in an accident while responding to an Officer Assistance call. As a result, I suffered a spinal cord injury which left me permanently paralyzed below my rib cage. There is no medical treatment or chance of any recovery.
