St. Johns County deputy involved in motorcycle crash weeks ago remains in hospital, staying positive

Jacksonville, FL — It's a long road to recovery, but a St. Johns County Sheriff's Office deputy involved in a line-of-duty motorcycle crash two weeks ago is staying positive.

The Sheriff's Office says Deputy DeLeo's crash caused serious lower extremity injuries and he will have a long road to what they hope will be a full recovery.

DeLeo is expected to remain hospitalized for several more weeks and then continue his recovery in out-patient care.

The Sheriff's Office says his spirit and tenacity is strong and he's forging ahead to get back to his passion of serving the community.

Friends of the DeLeo family have started a GoFundMe account to assist the family as he recovers, you can find that link HERE.
