He had been struck once near the right ear, but the wound has since healed, his attorney said.
....he had no visible wounds or bandages.... his attorney said.

Curiouser, and curiouser... Then can anyone explain the *why* of his being in a hospital, for six weeks, or so?

It is possible that Von Brunn didn’t even shoot the guard, according to an eyewitness—

She heard security guards yell to someone she could not see: “They were, ‘Get on the floor. Drop the weapon! Drop the weapon!’ Once he didn’t respond, they started shooting.”* * .. Hernandez saw another security guard lying flat on his belly.
[Comment: If the perp had already shot off a round, the cops would not have given him a warning. The old guy never got a chance to fire his gun.]

MARIA:* I ran towards the glass doors to see what was going on....* And there I could see a security man pull out his gun and shoot towards the shooter.
I also saw another security man [b]on his belly[/b].
HENRY: And then you saw some of the return fire from the security personnel?
MARIA: Yes, [b]it hit the security man[/b].* ...* *... I thought that the security guards were just shooting, but then I know that they were shooting at someone. So it sounded like a small gun. It did not sound very loud. It sounded like the ones that the security guards — almost the same as the ones the security guards were shooting.

HENRY: ... as we heard from that eyewitness, Maria, 19 years old, who was saying that the security officer was bleeding profusely, was face down on the ground, [b]was bleeding from the back[/b], she believed...
...she thought that [b]he was shot in the back and that the security guard had blood coming out of his back and he was face down on the ground[/b].
