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.”
Martinez continued to update his social media
followers throughout his recovery, posting a
picture of himself in a hospital bed, with the
gunshot wound visibly showing
Martinez is living proof that if getting shot
doesn’t pull someone away from his phone,
nothing will.
