From Staff Reports

WOODVILLE – Last week, U.S. Rep. Brian Babin (R-Woodville) presented Troy Costello with an American flag that once flew over the U.S. Capitol.

Costello, an officer with the Woodville Police Department, survived being shot in the face during an incident in September, while responding to a call on duty. Babin said “By the grace of God, he survived.”

Costello has been recovering, and was presented with the flag by Babin, along with a certificate to recognize his heroic actions undertaken while in imminent danger.
