It's your smartphone becoming life savers for your country's real life heroes, as the Finnish manufactured Nokia Lumia 520 saves the life of a Military Policeman, who was off-duty, this past Thursday, when he returned to his home back, where his family members were taken hostage by two criminals.
According to the reports from the sources and São Paulo, Military Police, all this scene started around 13h, on 1st of May, Thursday, when the victim's Mother, Father and a relative was taken under hostage at his own home at Alexandrina Street Vieira Monteiro, Residential Garden in White Water. The lady was taken into the house, where his Father and the relative was made hostage for about 30 minutes, by one of the criminal, with the other guy waiting on the bike outside.
It was then, the son of the couple and the 24 years old victim arrived at the scene, with his uniform in hands, asking his Mother to wash it. As the suspect made a note of the uniform in his hands and realizing him to be a countryside cop, fired two gun shots to the target. Fortunately, one of the shot hit the gate of a neighbor's house, with only one bullet ended hitting the target's back pocket of his pants, but not injuring or hurting him a bit, as the Nokia Lumia 520 left in his very same pocket deflected the bullet away.
Unfortunately, the robbers escaped with the phones, watches, jewelry and the left over money towards the Garden of Hydrangeas. But here, we really appreciate the build of Nokia, which seriously saved a man's life, which could have turned out to be a worst day for his family. Remember us reporting about HTC EVO 3D saving a man's life in armed robbery took place in United States, the last year. Now we must wait and see whether Nokia will too replace this fully destroyed Lumia 520 with a brand new one for the São Paulo, Military Police Officer.
