When Officer Dossi regained consciousness after surgery, his dad tried to keep it light and busted his son’s chops over $20.
“I went over and asked, `Where’s the $20 you owe me?’ My son started laughing and said, `I took it out of your wallet, I didn’t think you’d notice,’ ” said the dad, breaking down in tears. “He just tried to make me laugh.”

Officer Dossi, an Iraq veteran, is an Army Airborne reservist and was scheduled to go to Africa in a few weeks.
That tour, and perhaps his entire reservist career, are now on hold.
“The doctor just told me the bullet in his back just missed his spine. He was shot in the left arm and the arm just doesn’t look good,” the hero cop’s dad said.
“The doctors expect a full recovery. But that arm. I just hope that doesn’t affect his career. He’s Army Airborne. He can’t jump out of airplanes with a messed-up arm.”
