Nokia’s handsets are known for being quite indestructible. There’s a
certain level of lore that surrounds a Nokia phone and how nothing can
dent it. Which is why we’re not too surprised that a Nokia
Lumia 520 helped a police officer in Brazil avoid a bullet.
An off-duty cop went to visit his parents and found the house was in
the process of being robbed. The two crooks had taken the parents
hostage and were gathering up items in the household. The off-duty cop
was fired at twice before the crooks took off. One bullet missed the
officer completely, while the other hit his Lumia 520 that was in his
back pocket.
The officer (thanks Lumia 520) and his family are safe, but the
criminals took off with items and have yet to be found. Of course most
any other phone would have saved him from the bullet, but Windows Phone
is the second-most popular OS in Brazil.
