Hair-Raising

'Weave' Been Shot: Hair-Do Stops Bullets: (NY Daily News via reader Jorge)


Gunfire erupted inside a Bronx nightclub early yesterday, leaving one patron dead and two others wounded - including a woman whose thick hair weave snared the bullet that pierced a door and grazed her scalp, police sources said.

 Glenda Clarke, 26, was in the ladies' room at the Flamingo Lounge when the pistol-packing patron opened fire just before 6a.m., the sources said.

 The Baychester joint was sprayed with nearly a dozen 9-mm. bullets, including one that sailed through the rest room door, sources said.

 The slug scraped the side of Clarke's head, then got trapped in her hair, sources said.

 "It got stuck in her weave," a police source told the Daily News. "It was unbelievable."
