The ex-girlfriend of Raoul Moat has described the night she was shot and her new partner killed by the gunman.
Samantha Stobbart, 22, told the News of the World she had spent a "happy" evening with new boyfriend Chris Brown before Moat attacked.
Doctors told her that if she had held her arm differently she "would have died", she added.
Moat also shot Pc David Rathband in the face and evaded Northumbria Police for a week before shooting himself.
Miss Stobbart, who was interviewed in a hospital bed by the News of the World, told how she and karate instructor Mr Brown had left a friend's house in the early hours of the morning when Moat struck.
It's actually the arm that saved it because it took all the pressure and force from hitting my organs”

In the News of the World interview, she choked as she recalled how Mr Brown kissed her just before they stepped outside.
"We got out the gate," she said. "Raoul jumped out from under the window. Actually, I shouted at Chris, 'That's Raoul'.
"That's obviously when he shot Chris."
She told the paper that she had been saved by chance.
"Somehow my arm ended up in front of me as a block, and the doctors have turned round to me and said if my arm wasn't there, then I would have died," she added.
"It's actually the arm that saved it because it took all the pressure and force from hitting my organs, really."

She said she and Mr Brown had been having "a really good time" at a friend's house before the shooting.
"Obviously, we had forgotten about Raoul by then," she told the paper.
"We were happy, chilling, relaxing."
After being pursued by police, Moat was involved in a six-hour stand-off with armed officers, which ended when the former nightclub doorman apparently shot himself in the early hours of last Saturday.
A total of 15 people have been arrested during the Moat inquiry. Two have been charged with conspiracy to murder and have been remanded in custody.
Eight people in total have been released on bail.
A Facebook group, RIP Raoul Moat You Legend, which attracted 35,000 members, was removed after it came under fire from Prime Minister David Cameron.
