NY - Man shot 21 times and still going strong.

[Irish]

Crazy story of a cop accidentally shooting another cop, thankfully he was wearing a vest, several innocents getting hit by the police, one guy dying and another guy getting shot 21 times and surviving... http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ny_crime/2010/08/08/2010-08-08_2_cops_shot_man_killed_in_harlem_gunfight.html

Luckily for Alvarez — whose criminal record includes at least eight prior arrests — none of the bullets hit his brain, heart or major arteries. His family members say that even though his arms, legs and torso were riddled with ammunition, Alvarez is "doing all right" and talking. It's believed he'll survive. A forensics expert told the New York Daily News' Simone Weichselbaum and Virginia Breen that Alvarez is probably the new holder of a somewhat dubious record.
