Fort Hood — The Army psychiatrist charged in last month's deadly shooting spree at Fort Hood has been moved from ICU to a private room.

Attorney John Galligan said Wednesday that his client, Maj. Nidal Hasan, remains under guard at a San Antonio military hospital and is doing rehabilitation.

Galligan says doctors have said Hasan, whose wounds left him paralyzed, needs to be hospitalized a couple more months while he learns to care for himself.

But Galligan says he's filed a motion to have Hasan moved to a hospital closer to his office near Fort Hood, which is about 125 miles northeast of San Antonio.

An official from Brooke Army Medical Center did not immediately return a call Wednesday to The Associated Press.

Hasan has been charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder.
