Cam’ron

Rapper Cam’ron was shot by some would be car jackers who took a fancy to his Lamborghini in 2005. When Cam’ron refused to give up the car he was shot in both arms, but still he managed to drive away from his attacker. He was then treated at Howard University Hospital, where upon his release he said, ‘I got shot three times and my album comes out November 22,’ when asked for a comment.

Ray Davies

Kink’s founder Ray Davies was shot in the leg in 2004, after he chased a mugger in the French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana. Davies had been walking with his girlfriend when a man jumped out of a car and demanded her purse, she handed it over and he ran away, after which Davies chased him. The mugger then turned and shot the singer in the leg. Davies' leg bone was shattered, and he subsequently needed a titanium rod to bolt his leg together. He would chronicle the events of the shooting and its subsequent impact in his 2013 book ‘Americana: The Kinks, The Rift, The Road, The Story’.
