Man in 40s shot 10 times, still survives.

Whoa. The last middle-aged guy to take 10 bullets and still live is Jack Bauer every week. From the Chicago Sun-Times:

A man was shot ten times and survived the attack, which occurred after he argued with three other people late Sunday in the Calumet Heights community on the Far South Side.

The incident began when the victim became involved in an argument with three “offenders” on the 9100 block of South Oglesby Avenue, according to South Chicago District police.

At 9:08 p.m., ten shots were fired and the man -- who is in his 40s -- took ten bullets, four in the buttocks and six in the left leg, according to police.

The man was taken in serious condition to Advocate Trinity Hospital, but he was later “stabilized,” according to police.

A motive was not known and Calumet Area detectives are investigating.
