this was in my local paper today;
The terrifying incident happened on Wednesday, December 12 while a man was chatting in his car with two friends in a rural road near Hailsham.
Suddenly there was a loud bang and the driver’s window shattered. Terrified, the three friends piled out of the car and ducked for cover.
After a few minutes, they plucked up the courage to get back in the vehicle where they found an impact mark to the corner of the windscreen.
The driver then realised he had a burn injury to his neck where the bullet had skimmed past.
In the passenger footwell was a spent 0.243 bullet, the type used to hunt game.

Edit: stw seems to join ‘r’ and ‘n’ together in unfortunate ways. It was a BURN injury to his neck.
