What goes up, must come down. Bullet fired into the air in anger hits a bridesmaid over a mile away.

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

FORT WORTH, Texas -- A Texas bridesmaid was struck by a stray bullet while preparing for the bouquet toss at her best friend's wedding reception.

[...]

"I didn't hear anything. I just knew I had a hole in my arm," said Campbell. "It was painful, but it wasn't terrible, but it did feel like I was shot. There was really no other way to describe it."

She said the bullet traveled far, more than a mile, and had lost most of its power after smashing through the roof of the ballroom where the reception was being held.

The bullet fell out of Campbell's arm and onto the dance floor.

"Apparently, some man was upset and just fired his gun into the air about a mile away from where we were. The bullet just came through the roof and into my arm," said Campbell. "It's just a freak event."

[...]

The wound didn't bleed much and Campbell is making a full recovery.

That's like being hit on the head by a lump of frozen urine ejected from a passenger airplane.

This is actually a serious problem in the Philippines during Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve where people would fire off a round (or two) to celebrate the occassion. It has caused severe injuries and even death. So much so that the government placed a ban on it.

I was living in Zamboanga (southern part of the country) and our bedroom ceiling suddenly developed a leak. When I had someone come over to trace the leak and fix it, he found it was a bullet hole. Luckily it was over a closet and we found the bullet at the top of the closet. I quaked at the thought that the hole was just a couple of feet from our bed.
