妇女的黑莓手机挡住了子弹

2010-02-24来源:和谐英语

"You know,it's pure luck."

Ever heard of a bullet-proof BlackBerry? The smartphone is usually used to make a phone call,check e-mail or do some social networking. But this BlackBerry Curve, literally stopped the bullet. I checked,there's no ad for that.

"BlackBerry was in the right place ,at the right time,and the bullet,you know,hit her in the right spot."


You can see a picture of where the BlackBerry acted like cavalier or bullet-proof vest. A bullet hole in the victim's jeans makes for a heart-stopping visual.

"The bullet did not penetrate the cell phone,bent the cell phone a little bit,makes cell phone unusable."

Capt. Carl Bush says Anthony Holtvog's gun misfired at this Fricker's on Miller Lane. Capt. Bush says Holtvog was putting on his jacket when the shot fired.

"While he was adjusting his jacket, he noticed that the slide was back on the gun and then hit fire. He said that his hand wasn't anywhere near the trigger or anything."

Bush says Holtvog has a CCW permit for the gun and also says he's lucky the bullet didn't strike other customers.

"Fricker's was pretty busy and you had the potential for other people in the establishment from getting hurt and hurt seriously."
