Young Girl Provides Home For Stray Bullet

CHICAGO–Eight-year-old Ashley Jennings, described as “the sweetest little girl in the whole world,” provided a warm, comfortable home for a stray bullet Monday. “Ashley opened up her heart and let that bullet in,” Chicago police officer Michael O’Shea said. “This was the kind of girl who would give you her last dime, stop to help a stranger or give a wayward shard of hot metal a place to stay in her chest.” Said Jeff Kutcher, who witnessed the act of hospitality, “A fraction of a second after the bullet left its former home, Ashley unhesitatingly gave it a new one. If all of Chicago’s children were as kind-hearted as Ashley, no bullet would ever go homeless again.”
