Boston police say two officers who were shot last week while responding to a domestic call have been upgraded to stable condition.

Officers Richard Cintolo and Matt Morris were shot Wednesday night and seriously wounded as they responded to a domestic disturbance. The man who shot them was killed by police.

Both officers underwent several surgeries at Massachusetts General Hospital.

The department’s Twitter account said Monday that Commissioner William Evans visited Cintolo and Morris and found “both guys doing better.” He says, “it appears somebody upstairs is listening to all of our prayers.”

More than 100 people marched Friday night in the East Boston neighborhood where they were shot to honor the officers.

    It is a shame that so many police officers are being shot. They should be given the respect they deserve.

    when a nation rebels against the authority which God established according to scriptures in Hebrews. its clear this nation is becoming a lawless nation. this nation has been hood winked for 8 years. we either wake up and vote for a man who says no to the insiders and establishment of both parties, or we continue down this road of total destruction. the decision is yours.
