After undergoing extensive surgery on his neck, Boldy has been removed from the intensive care unit and is now in stable condition."

The statement continued: "Boldy and his family would like to express their gratitude to the incredible doctors and nurses that are taking care of him, and also to the communities’ emergency medical personnel and first responders."
