An 11-year-old primary school student from Matamoros, Tamaulipas, a veteran of two shootouts at his school, has designed a bullet-proof backpack to protect himself and others who find themselves under fire.
“Two years ago we were in the classroom when all of a sudden we heard lots of shots being fired. We threw ourselves to the floor, but we had nothing to protect us from a stray bullet. Everybody was crying and very scared.”
Juan David Hernández’s harrowing experiences at school drove him to find a solution that would provide protection under such attacks.
