Before he knew what was happening, the assailant had fired two rounds at his head.

Incredibly, though, both bullets ricocheted off his skull, leaving him with only minor flesh wounds.While it's not clear exactly how this could have happened, some reports have suggested that the age of the bullets, combined with the small caliber of the gun, may have impacted their effectiveness.

Still very much alive, the fortunate man was able to flag down security guards who arrested the attacker.

It remains unclear exactly why the perpetrator had shot him in the first place.
