Homeless in Arizona

Shot at a bus stop!!!

  Sunday at 10:00 a.m. or a minute or two before I was at the bus stop on Priest, just north of Broadway in Tempe.

I was bending down looking at the schedule for Sunday.

I felt a sharp pain in my right side & thought I was hit by a rock or something.

I then saw two cars going north. A black van, SUV or panel truck was in the outside lane. I suspect it shot me. Mainly because it was closer to me.

A white car was in the inside line. They might have shot me too.

A short time later a cop car came by. It was a Tempe cop car.

I hate pigs, and normally I will not report crimes to them. I have been abused many times by crooked cops and I simply do not want to be abused by them, so I normlly never report crimes.

But I was p*ssed off because I had just been shot.

I waved at him, but he didn't see me.

I made a futile attempt to catch the cars that shot me, but quickly gave up.

I then rode my bike to the light rail station.

I asked some guy at the light rail station to tell me what my wound looked like. He told me it looked like a BB gun or pellet gun wound.

There were two cops at the light rail station. And a couple of light rail narcs. They looked like they were shaking down a homeless guy. I didn't talk to them.

I then took the light rail to Phoenix.

At the QT gas station I cleaned it with soap.

At the meeting I attended a persons girl friend took some photos of my wound, and the bullet hole thru my sweat shirt.

The photos were taken at about 11 a.m.

My friend said it was probably a pellet gun that shot me. He said when he was a child he was shot a lot of times with a BB gun and it didn't make a wound like mine.

Later on I would find out it was probably a BB that shot me, not a pellet.

I suspect I was shot about 9:58, 9:59, or 10:00 a.m., by the black van, truck or SUV.

After the meeting I went back to the bus stop where I was shot and I think I found the bullet or BB I was shot with.

It seems to be a chrome plated BB that looks like a ball bearing more then a BB.

The BBs I played with as a kid were copper plated, not chrome plated. I think this is the BB that I was shot with.

I didn't find it when I was shot at 10 a.m, but I went back and found it around 4:30 p.m. or 5 p.m. when I went back to Tempe.

It was in a place where I expected to find it. On the ground, near the schedule I was looking at when I was shot.

When I was a kid I used BBs, but they were copper plated BBs. This looks like a chrome plated BB.

I shot the photos next to a dollar bill so you can see the size of the BB.

  These two photos of the wound were taken around 5 p.m. that day. I was shot at 10 a.m., so the photos are about 7 hours old.

  This is a photo of the hole the BB cut in the sweat shirt I was wearing.

Since I was bending down looking at the bus schedule I would have to bend over for the hole to line up with the wound on my back.
