Cop avoids being shot by jamming finger in guns trigger....or something...

Interesting part of this story is the difference between the headline and the text of the story....and this is FOX news

Headline:

NYPD Sgt. Saves Own Life by Jamming Finger Into Trigger of Felon's Gun

From the story:

A quick-handed NYPD sergeant stopped a violent felon from shooting him in the gut by jamming his ring finger under the hammer of the felon’s .38 revolver, cops said today.

I'm surprised they didn't expound upon the number of bullets in the "clip" of this a-hole's revolver.
