Baby Got Bullets

I'm guessing that this woman didn't want this to make the local news, but it did:

Woman Shot Near MLK Parkway
DES MOINES, Iowa -- Des Moines police are investigating a shooting that left one woman hospitalized.

Police said the shooting happened around midnight near Hickman Road and Martin Luther King Jr. Parkway.

Three shots were fired in an alley off the 2100 block of MLK Parkway, and 35-year-old Amy Kehoe was hit in the buttocks, according to authorities.

At time of the shooting, police said she was working at Jeff Hills Down South barbecue stand in the Shop-N-Save parking lot.

The woman was taken to the hospital, and her injuries do not appear to be life-threatening.

Can we just say humiliating? Not life-threatening, maybe, but completely and totally embarrassing because everyone who just read that article is now picturing her lying facedown in the hospital bed.

FYI, I actually drive through this intersection to get to and from work every day. I love living in the 'hood.
