iPhone Saves Woman from Crossbow Attack on Koh Samui

A Norwegian woman narrowly survived a crossbow attack in Koh Samui after her iPhone 12 Mini blocked a shot aimed at her head. The suspect, 56-year-old Elmer, allegedly fired the weapon while drunk and enraged during a late-night outburst. As the victim, Ms. Pia, called police, Elmer returned with a crossbow and fired—hitting her phone instead of her. He fled but was later arrested at Surat Thani Bus Terminal following a court-issued warrant for attempted murder. He now faces prosecution as Thai authorities pursue charges related to the violent attack.
