Miracle as Crucifix saves 9 year old boy from stray bullet

 

A boy has cheated death after his crucifix necklace stopped a stray bullet from penetrating his chest in Argentina.

Tiziano, nine, was shot on the doorstep of his home in Las Talitas on New Year’s Eve but was saved by what his mother described as a ‘miracle’.

The youngster was celebrating the end of year festivities with his family and was playing with his sister and cousin.

After he returned home, the boy’s aunt found his crucifix necklace on the ground.

The silver cross which Tiziano had received as a gift from his father David, 36, had a hole in the middle where the bullet had entered.

The boy said he hadn’t realised the crucifix had saved him until he saw the necklace which fell off in the shooting.

His mother Alejandra said Tiziano was blessed and is a blessing to her and his father.

She said: ‘He is here thank God. For us, it is a miracle.

‘We took him to church, he talked to the Father, He told him that he has been blessed. Anything could have happened to him. For us, it is a miracle.’

Local media have also described the story as a ‘New Year’s Miracle’.

Police have been informed and an investigation is underway to find out who fired the bullet.

They said: ‘The event took place around 10pm on December 31 2020.

‘A 9-year-old boy named Tiziano, from the neighborhood of Las Talitas, checked in with his father into the ER of the Baby Jesus Hospital in the southern part of the capital city with a superficial wound in the thorax, produced by a firearm.

‘After being checked thoroughly by several doctors on staff for 48 minutes, the boy was released.’
