Someone tried to gun down Jamie Bacon as his luxury Mercedes sports coupe tooled through Vancouver. Bacon, one of the city's three notorious young Bacon brothers, was wearing body armour and escaped by driving over a median and crashing his bullet-riddled car into a restaurant parking lot. Police had already warned the brothers, out on bail on gun and drug charges, that they were being targeted by rivals. They also warned very publicly that anyone associating with the brothers could be putting themselves in harm's way. They've set up surveillance cameras on the street where the brothers live and a marked police car follows them around when they leave their parents' house under strict curfew restrictions
