Interesting times - lucky escape for a co-worker.

Walking from my car into the building this morning I walked past a colleague's Land Rover. At first thought he had had an accident when I saw that his drivers' side window was smashed.

When I walked closer however I realized it was no accident...







Turns out it was an attempted car-jacking last night, for which we are quite famous around these parts.

Luck was on his side though as he, having survived the first two shots, managed to keep his car moving. The thugs didn't quite give up and fired another shot as he drove off, which went through the back door but at an angle that saw it safely embedding itself in the lower cushion of the driver's seat.

I hope he takes my advice and buys a lottery ticket this weekend...
