It was very hot that night, wrote Deputy Pinney, “and I thought for a moment, “I won’t wear my vest tonight”, but my wife said “Wear it!” Thank God I did!” In the early morning hours of September 9, Deputy Pinney was checking out a suspicious vehicle when a shot rang out striking Pinney in the back. The ambush attack left a .22 magnum slug embedded in Pinney’s Second Chance® vest. The doctor on duty, checking out Pinney before release stated, “You’d be a dead man, if it weren’t for your vest.”
