NYPD: Woman saved by purse when shot at point-blank range during carjacking


On Media Outlook News: A woman's purse became her unlikely hero recently, when it stopped a bullet from wounding her during a violent carjacking.

The New York Police Department says a 39-year-old victim was loading luggage into her vehicle at 4 a.m. on Wednesday morning in Brooklyn when a 52-year-old man held her at gunpoint and demanded her car keys.
The woman fought back, at which point the man fired a round at her at point-blank range. The woman was saved from the gun shot, though, when the bullet was stopped by her purse and wallet.

This feud between  Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta 's  Stevie J  and  Joseline Hernandez  has just gotten even nastier as the reality TV bad boy just accused his former lady of lying about every major detail about her life, down to her name. According to  TMZ , Stevie claims the self-proclaimed Puetro Rican princess's entire life is a lie, but his words weren't quite enough to get the attention of a judge to issue a restraining order in his favor. In the docs he filed, he says Joseline's real name is Shenellica Juneann Bettencourt and she's actually 39, 10 years older than she claims to be. On top of that, he says she isn't even of Puerto Rican descent and might be currently married to another man. He ends his claims saying the baby she is currently carrying isn't even his. None of the info he provided seemed to help in granting that restraining order against her, though.
