GOVERNOR ABBOTT BACK IN AUSTIN

  

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has been released after four nights in the hospital for treatment of severe burns he suffered while vacationing last week.

Spokesman Matt Hirsch said Abbott left San Antonio's Brooke Army Medical Center and returned to the governor's mansion in Austin.

Abbott sustained extensive second- and third-degree burns on his lower legs and feet after being scalded July 7 while in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

While recovering, Abbott developed a "minor infection," was hospitalized and had a skin graft Tuesday.
