http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/london/4319966.stm A woman has told how her life was saved when a bullet bounced off her bra. Helen Kelly, 25, was hit as shots were fired after last November's Urban Music Awards in Barbican, central London, in what police said was a gang feud.
She told BBC News the underwire on her bra deflected a bullet away from her chest and into her right breast.
Linton Ambursley, 28, from Lewisham, south-east London, was jailed for 12 years on Friday at the Old Bailey after admitting wounding with intent.
The court heard how the Ghetto Boys from Peckham and rivals from Bermondsey, both in south-east London, fired 18 shots as people left the awards ceremony.
Ms Kelly was hit as she and a friend ran for safety.
"I heard some bangs but I didn't think it was gun fire," she said.
"I started running. Then I looked down and saw blood on my stomach and it was only then I realised I had been shot.
"I'm still not sure how it happened, but the underwire on my bra snapped when the bullet hit it and I think it did stop it going any further."
Det Sgt John Osibote, from the City of London Police, said: "There was absolute pandemonium.
"Members of the public were caught in the cross-fire of two gangs who had the audacity to open fire in the centre of London."
Tyrone Headley, 28, from New Cross, south-east London, was jailed for two years at the Old Bailey on Friday for assisting an offender.
Ms Kelly, an accountant originally from Tyneside, was the only casualty.

All By Myself ~ Celine Dion by Eric Carmen/Sergei Rachmaninoff
When I was young I never needed anyone And making love was just for fun Those days are gone Livin' alone I think of all the friends I've known When I dial the telephone Nobody's home
All by myself Don't wanna be All by myself Anymore
Hard to be sure Sometimes I feel so insecure And loves so distant and obscure Remains the cure
All by myself Don't wanna be All by myself Anymore All by myself Don't wanna live All by myself Anymore
When I was young I never needed anyone Making love was just for fun Those days are gone
All by myself Don't wanna be All by myself Anymore All by myself Don't wanna live Oh Don't wanna live By myself, by myself Anymore By myself Anymore Oh All by myself Don't wanna live I never, never, never Needed anyone
So this is whats going to happen from now on? Everything is going to be one big joke? Is it going to be impossible to do anything serious here from now on?
It's not fair!
