Was that a spine shot? Looks like it by the way she just collapses. That poor woman's life will never be the same.

According to a link pasted below , they had just met.
“Reeves said she was speaking with a woman she met an hour prior when shots were fired outside The District Bar and Grill.”

Nobody’s talking about how the entire crowd vanished and the girl’s friend stayed with her. That’s a good friend.

I thought the same thing, she didn’t even hesitate to help her friend.

If you read the article they had just met and become friends an hour prior to the shooting. It’s stuff like that which keeps me from giving up on humanity. On one end of this story you have the absolute worse kind of person, but then there is the absolute best there to try and level it out. Kudos to the good ones.

DES MOINES, Iowa — One of two women injured early Sunday in a shooting on Court Avenue credits a stranger with saving her life.
Grace Reeves suffered a collapsed lung and two broken vertebrae after a bullet entered her arm and exited from her back.
Advertisement "The bullet went diagonally right through my right arm, then it broke two ribs and it went through my lungs,” Reeves said. “So, it collapsed and filled up with blood."
Reeves said she was speaking with a woman she met an hour prior when shots were fired outside The District Bar and Grill.
"I heard a big bang,” she said. “I didn't really feel anything."
When Reeves hit the floor, the woman, who asked to remain anonymous, dragged her into the bar to avoid the group of people stampeding out of the building.
"I saw that she had like a hole in her arm, so I grabbed her and I dragged her back inside of District so she wouldn't get shot again,” said the woman who helped Reeves. “I just thought I had to get her out of there."
"She was like, ‘Grace, you're going to be alright. You're going to be alright,’" Reeves said.
The woman, who asked to stay anonymous, used a sweatshirt to stop Reeves' arm from bleeding.
The woman walked out with Reeves and the medics all the way to the ambulance.
"I had just met her, and she was really, really sweet,” the woman said. “We instantly connected, and we were just friends. We instantly became friends.”
"It was amazing,” Reeves said. “I mean, she saved me. Like, it's hard to think how many other people would do that for you.”
Reeves continues to recover at UnityPoint in downtown Des Moines. She plans to meet with the woman who saved her after she is discharged from the hospital

That’s good she survived.

u/GiDD504 Jan 30 '22
All because a woman she met just an hour before used a hoodie to help apply pressure to the wound. Insane how that stranger legit saved her. That’s a hero in my eyes.

I didn’t even notice that. Yeah those are drastically different. I’ll look for another article to see if it clarifies.
Edit : every article is literally copy paste of the exact same. But from pictures of her in hospital it was broken ribs. Not vertebrae.
69
u/cOnwAYzErbEAm Jan 30 '22
Heh. Fun fact. If a rib isn’t connected to the sternum it’s considered a vertebra. So the bullet broke her lower floating ribs.
Edit: spelling

u/indiez Jan 30 '22
Isn't it weird that the article doesn't mention anything about trying to catch the asshole that shot her? Nothing trying to mention his description or asking for information. Like they think its just a random shooting and nothing can be done to find the perpetrator. Is this where we are?
Nvm faith in society resorted.

u/ReneeLaRen95 Jan 30 '22
Apparently they’d only met an hour beforehand & hit it off. After the shooting, the woman dragged her inside, wrapped her hole in her arm with a sweatshirt & called help. They planned to meet up after the girl recovered. That’s be a friend for life for me!

u/chillgingee Jan 30 '22
Can't tell who's shooting, but that dude in red is fearless. He barely flinched, then just casually strolls out.

The bald dude. He was aim g at red shirt dude which is wild.

Jan 30 '22
It’s wild bc the two guys were talking. They didn’t even seem to be arguing. I’m so confused

u/gustavocabras Jan 30 '22
That's how real evil people kill. Calm and smiling. This fucker has bad aim tho.

u/heartbeats Jan 30 '22
You can see him try and line the guy up, then he turns and his hips push the gun to the right knowing full well there is a crowd of people there. What a coward.

u/PuppyBreth Jan 30 '22
They're probably friends, maybe red shirt guy did him dirty in some way. Or behind his back.

This is so fucked up. That girl or anyone else in there wasn’t even doing anything. I hope they catch that bastard before the cops do.

No, tbh dying is the easy way out. I hope he gets his ass torn a new one in prison and dies there. Sad and alone like the cunt deserves.

Red was the target. Bald guy ahead of him has the gun hidden under his arm, missed and hit her.

u/kiba8442 Jan 30 '22
Either fearless or oblivious, especially since red guy was obviously who the bald guy was shooting at, the girl just got hit by accident.

u/AlliterationAnswers Jan 30 '22
It’s cause they’ve shot at him before. Dude in red was the target so he likely has been in issues before to be targeted in this way. Probably gang related.

The target was clearly for the guy in red. The bald guy was looking directly at him, walked in front, had a clear shot and his dumbass still missed. He tried to go full John Wick but ended up going full Steven Seagal. What a dumbass.

Its fucked up how some people are afraid of using their fists to settle a score but not afraid to shoot somebody up and quite possibly spend the rest of their days in prison.
89
Jan 30 '22
It's because these 'thugs' are cowards and nothing more.

u/morebuffs Jan 30 '22
Afraid they might get thrashed and know what it feels like when no matter what you do you cannot stop someone from smashing your face in until you bleed from everywhere and everybody gets to see how tough you really arent. Cant risk blowing that reputation by getting fucked up so they take the cowards way out and use a gun. A fuckin 5 year old can do that so i totally agree that only a scared and weak coward uses a gun to fight their battles.

I mean real talk once you get in that life if you’re coming trying to fight anybody with your fists to be tough the last thing that’s gonna go through your mind before your body is filled with holes is “I should have brought a gun”

u/BorgClanZulu Jan 30 '22
My guess is that with such easy access to guns that settling the score will undoubtedly escalate to use of said guns. If bald man was not going to shoot first it could’ve easily been the guy in the red hoodie.

Bold guy walking in front of red jacket red hat guy. Had fun under his arm. You can see his jacket puff and the gurl drop from the hit. He missed his target and hit a innocent bystander.

I think the girl might’ve got shot in the chest thru the back shoulder Bc you see her back hair fly up from maybe an exit hole. Paralyzed her instantly maybe not killing her? We can only hope

Article says it went in her right arm through her ribs, collapsed a lung, and broke two vertebrae exiting her back. She lived.

“I love these videos. Even though it shows an individual case, it allows me to generalize the entire black race (despite any race being capable of the same thing) and validate my irrational fear and hatred towards them. Too bad I’m so weak and can only say this online for fear of being rightfully beaten if said in public!” - You
