Only in NYC. He must have been in a gunfight because it's very hard to shoot yourself in the back.

Criminal suspects have been known to do it. The presence of certain police officers can warp spacetime, such that your own bullet can do a 180, pop back in time, do another 180, and then shatter your own spine. Amazing, really.

Then again, it can also happens when someone fails to flee a gunfight.
