The man had his phone — possibly a Droid Incredible or an EVO 4G — in his left chest pocket had and it stopped a bullet from injuring him.

It’s a pretty amazing story but its definitely not unheard of. We know of at least two other similar incidences, one involving an Motorola Razr and the other a case in South America involving an obscure Nokia phone.
