He took a selfie first. True story! Read below
20 year-old Isaac Martinez was shot in the chest by the alleged Mesa
shooter in Arizona, after he refused to give up the keys to his car.
Instead of immediately calling for help, Martinez took a selfie of
his bullet wound and posted it to social sharing site Snapchat
When the suspected shooter, Ryan Giroux, approached Martinez demanding the keys to his car, he refused and Giroux fired at him.
For anyone who didn’t get enough detail from the photos, Martinez
gave his 1,200 Facebook friends a point-by-point account of how the
shooting went down:
“He (the suspect) came in and demanded my keys for a getaway car. Of course i said no,
and next was him pulling out a gun and cocking it. Soon as i saw it i
started stepping back. And yelled for everyone to step back and get
down.
Next thing i knew i was hitting the
ground, got up as fast as i fell, and ran out the back exit. At the same
time the assailant had started taking off in my chef instructors [sic]
car. When i saw he had gone. I noticed the cops and fire trucks down the
street and went there.”
He followed up the picture with an update of how he was doing:
“So im home and well! I have no complicated injuries and
should heal fine,” Martinez’s Facebook posts says. “I had a bullet hit
me from behind and go through my shoulder and out my coller area. Any
higher or lower it coulda hit a artery, or shatter my shoulder blade. It
was a miracle hit.”
