I just spoke with a friend of Mary Boyd, the woman who was shot in the face at NorthPark Center on Friday night.
The friend, Christina Adcock, is acting as the family’s spokeswoman. She says Boyd is doing better today and “grateful to be alive.”
She also offered new details of the shooting.
Boyd was in her Ford pickup waiting to pick up her daughter from the movie theater when a gunman approached her passenger door and said, “Open the door, I have a gun!”
The truck was already running, so a panicked Boyd put it in drive and sped off. The gunman followed, firing two shots before he fled.
Boyd was hit by one of the bullets. It went through one side of her cheekbone, went through her sinuses, ricocheted off her other cheekbone and came out her ear, barely missing her brain.
Boyd never lost consciousness and tried to call 911 but couldn’t see the number on her cell phone. So she drove to the nearby valet stand at Nordstrom, and they helped her.
The attack was totally random, Adcock said, adding the family would like to thank the doctors and staff at Baylor Medical Center for all they have done for her.
