THIS IS TRUE
A
construction worker in Lancaster, Calif., is expected to make a full
recovery after accidentally being shot in the head with a nail gun — six
times. Three of the nails penetrated his brain; one entered his spinal
column, but luckily not his spinal cord. Witnesses say Isidro Mejia, 39,
fell from the roof of the house he was building onto another worker who
was using the gun below. “The guy holding the nail gun was grabbing to
keep from falling, and just gripped tighter on the trigger,” said a Los
Angeles County sheriff’s investigator. “It’s a nail gun they use for
framing. It can drive nails through 2-by-4s.” (Los Angeles Times) …It’s the first time L.A. cops have said it:
a Mexican guy really was framed.
And
here are the amazing photo — actual x-ray of Isidro Mejia’s injuries.
He is expected to make a complete recovery. It took four days to remove
all the nails in delicate surgeries, taking care not to create
additional damage.
