Necklace Blocks Bullet Saves Woman's Life

ATLANTA -- An Atlanta woman is lucky to be alive thanks to a necklace she was wearing.
Jabriel Rump was leaving the Cascade Glenn Apartments Wednesday night in southwest Atlanta with her friend Octavia Miller when a man in another car spotted the two women and tried to get their attention.
The women told police that when they ignored the man and pulled away, he followed them and opened fire, apparently angry over being rejected.
Channel 2 Action News reporter Richard Elliot talked to Miller's roommate outside Grady Memorial Hospital about her wound.
"The bullet went into her cheek; it's stuck in her jaw," said Jazmine Wells.
"He followed them and shot them in the car," said Wells.
Rump was struck in the chest and her life may have been saved when the bullet hit a necklace she was wearing.
"They're in pain, but overall they'll be OK," said Wells. Two women remained hospitalized Thursday.
Police said the man was driving a red Eagle Talon.
