@i6g2000yqj.googlegroups.com, says... Diez stopped his car and confronted Simons near 1360 Tunnel Road. When
Simons began to walk away, Diez shot at him, Splain said.

The bullet blew a hole through the outer lining of Simons' helmet and
went straight through both sides of it, but he was not hit.

This is scary stuff - I have enough problems with threats from wing-
mirrors, opening doors, large wheels, dogs, pot-holes, errant
pedestrians etc, without drivers being armed (Once again I am thankful
that hand-guns are illegal here). But I am intrigued by...



?A matter of an inch or less in either direction would have meant that
bullet could have easily killed Mr. Simons,? Splain said.

..."_either_ direction".... I just can't quite picture that, unless
Simon's head is a very peculiar shape.

It went through his ears? ;)

That would have got both sides of the brain. Maybe it went between
the lobes of the brain (forehead to back of skull), like this woman?
(By the way, a few epileptics have brain surgery to disconnect the two
sides of the brain to limit seizures.)
