Grammy award winning crooner Marc Cohn (you know, the 'Walking In Memphis' bloke) has been shot in the head after an attempted car jacking following a gig in Denver, Colorodo. The good news is that the bullet didn't penetrate his skull, so he escaped pretty much unharmed, an extraordinary stroke of luck that promoted one police spokesman to say: "Frankly, I can't tell you how he survived".
It seems the incident occurred as Cohn and his tour manager Thomas Dube left a parking garage in their tour van. The attacker was allegedly fleeing police after trying to pay a hotel bill with a stolen credit card. When the attacker confronted Dube and Cohn with the gun, Dube seemingly sped up and swerved to escape, but the man fired a shot into the van's windscreen, which is what seemingly hit Cohn.
