Alonza Bryant, 16, was asleep when gunshots rang out in her South Seattle neighborhood Saturday night. One bullet pierced the living room window of her family's home and struck Bryant between the eyes.
By sheer chance, she had fallen asleep wearing her glasses. Slowed by the spectacles' frame, the slug lodged itself in the bridge of her nose, wounding Bryant but sparing her young life.
"I could have been dead. I'm glad that the glasses saved me," the teen told KOMO. "I fell asleep with my glasses on, and the glasses saved where the bullet was."
KIRO said shooting suspects drove by the house twice, spraying it with bullets each time. Police said Bryant was not the intended target.
