Ohio bus driver saved after copy of Bible in chest pocket stops two bullets
Talk about divine intervention.
An Ohio bus driver can thank the words of God for saving his life Monday after he was shot at three times — but two of the bullets were stopped by a contemporary version of the Bible the man had in his front chest pocket.
Rickey Wagoner, 49, had to stop his Dayton city bus around 5:20 a.m. Monday after an electrical problem. When he pulled over to the curb to investigate, three goons approached the driver and blasted away.

Rickey Wagner had to stop his Dayton, Ohio, bus early Monday after an electrical problem, and was ambushed by three goons. Here, emergency responders at the scene.
"I've been hit in the leg," Wagoner told an emergency dispatcher, the Dayton Daily News reported. "My chest feels like I've been hit with a sledgehammer."
But Wagoner will likely survive after a copy of “The Message,” a contemporary version of the New Testament, stopped two shots. He was also hit in the hip.
