Former Ozzy Osbourne Guitarist Jake E. Lee “Doing Surprisingly Well” After Being Shot In Las Vegas

After being shot near his Las Vegas home early Tuesday (October 13), former Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Jake E. Lee shared that he is recovering and “doing surprisingly well.” Lee was a victim of a random street shooting that took place about 10 miles from the Las Vegas Strip. The musician was in his driveway after taking his dog for a walk when he was repeatedly hit with gunshots. He was then taken to a nearby hospital where he was placed in an intensive care unit. Lee is “expected to fully recover,” according to a statement from his representative. Lee shared an additional update on Facebook, where he wrote, “I’m tired, but I feel relatively very lucky. One bullet went through my forearm, one through my foot, and one in the back which broke a rib and damaged a lung. Priority now is to keep draining my lung, then we can pull that tube out and concentrate on the more minor injuries.” (Consequence of Sound)
