Saved By The Snap of A Gun

He's in serious condition at the KHMH, but police say 22-year-old Kareem Wright is lucky to be alive after a brazen broad daylight shooting. According to his family, on Saturday afternoon, Wright was near the corner of Dean Street and Euphrates Avenue when he stopped to fix his bicycle and an unknown man came up on him and threw him to the ground. When he was on the ground, his attacker attempted to shoot him at point blank range but the gun snapped. Wright dashed off, but the gunman allegedly set chase and fired four shots which hit Wright. Witnesses say that once Wright realized he had been shot he caught a taxi and went to the hospital. He received injuries to his midsection and has had surgery where portions of his intestine and his liver were removed. He remains in the hospital tonight while police have no suspect detained.
