Air Force Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe is "slowly healing" after last week's shooting in Washington, D.C. , West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey said Friday.

"His parents report that his head wound is slowly healing and that he's beginning to 'look more like himself,'" Morrisey said in a statement.

The governor said the family expects Wolfe, 24, to be in acute care for another two to three weeks, but has been "optimistic about his progress."

West Virginia National Guard members Wolfe and Army Spc. Sarah Beckstrom were shot in an ambush-style attack in Washington, D.C., last week. Beckstrom, 20, died from her injuries the following day, on Nov. 27.
