Waxhaw Officer Richard Belk felt a sharp pain in is foot while SWAT training. This pain led to the diagnosis of compartment syndrome. After the diagnosis of this rare condition, Belk has had to have 10 surgeries and two more are planned. Belk's North Carolina workers' compensation was denied, and he says the bills keep adding up. He is now dependent on his family which is difficult. Belk's supporters are coming to his aid by holding a benefit BBQ cook-off in December.
