The bullet hardly cracked the screen, they make it sound like the cell phone saved the guy's life.

Sensationalism in the news?

LOL, they took his phone away as evidence. Nice.

If it was an iPhone, the bullet wouldn't even have scratched it.


Hmm... iPhone vs 10mm

A friend of mine had a mont blanc deflect a bullet, ended up just grazing him across the chest.

Guy I know was shot in the chest with a .32

His tie bar stopped it. Still got the tie bar and the bullet with the city seal imprinted into it. There are some lucky mofo's in the world.
