		Wounded but alive Joseph Friel, a 20-year-old Bogsider, was one of those injured during the shooting. He was hit in the chest. "It’s a miracle I’m here. The bullet hit the zipper of my parka and I think it must have been deflected. That saved my life," he said. Three of the injured, including Joseph Friel, talk to the BBC on 1 Feb 1972. “I couldn’t run fast enough,” says 18-year-old Alana Burke.
