CBS's McCormick Recovering at Walter Reed

Cami McCormick, the CBS News reporter injured in a roadside bombing in Afghanistan remains in stable condition at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., where she arrived at around 2 a.m. Wednesday.

A more concrete evaluation and prognosis for McCormick is expected to
come over the next few days as swelling subsides and doctors are better
able to assess her condition, CBS News and Sports President Sean McManus
and CBS News Radio Vice President Harvey Nagler said in a statement
Wednesday

McCormick was injured in an Aug. 28 explosion that resulted in multiple fractures to her arms and legs. She has no head injuries.

McCormick was traveling with members of the United States Army when the vehicle was hit by an improvised explosive device (IED). An American soldier in the same vehicle - Spc. Abraham S. Wheeler III, 22, of Columbia, S.C. - was killed in the attack.

The two other soldiers in the vehicle sustained minor injuries and were returned to their unit.

The U.S. military has detained three people in connection with the bombing. The three suspects were taken to an U.S. detention facility at Bagram Air Base Tuesday after investigators gathered forensic evidence from the scene, including fingerprints from the vehicle wreckage and the discovery of explosive residue on at least one of the suspects, reports CBS News correspondent David Martin.

McCormick will remain at Walter Reed, which McCormick's family, in consultation with doctors, determined to have the best surgeons and facilities for her treatment.

McCormick was initially treated at several U.S. military facilities in Afghanistan. She was then taken to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany for further treatment before being returned to the United States.

McCormick joined CBS News in September, 1998. She has won numerous awards for her reporting on some of the biggest stories since that time. She was at Ground Zero on September 11, 2001, in New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina wiped out its levees, and in the Gulf region for the start of the war in Iraq.
