The Lockland Police Department says Officer Brandon Gehring is off a ventilator and breathing on his own again.
Gehring was critically injured during a police chase on I-75 last week when another cruiser hit him as he put down stop sticks.
Health complications forced him back on a ventilator earlier this week.
There was a blood drive today at the Lockland Safety Services Center in Gehring's honor.
The Lockland Police are selling T-shirts to raise money for Gehring and there will be another fundraiser on Sunday, May from noon - 4 p.m. at the Wyoming Village Green.
