And maybe space alien ghosts yanked the bullets out of his face and stuck them in his stomach and other various and sundry body parts.

Me?

I'm betting on the reporter getting the "shot 5 times in the face" from one of his sources in the police department who didn't know squat about what really happened.

Hell, I had a couple of sources like that when I was a reporter. Used them for color, but certainly not facts!
