Police Officer Saved By His Badge

This story is not necessarily medical related, but I thought it should get a mention. A police officer in Queens was attacked last night by a drunk wielding a knife. The drunk stabbed at the officers heart and made contact. Fortunately, over the officer's heart was his police badge which shattered the knife upon contact. The drunk was then subdued and the officer escaped with only a minor cut on his hand. That according to an article in the New York Daily News.
