A few weeks ago the pilot received two bullets in suspicious circumstances which he recovered from and now this... Could there be a connection...?

Pierre Cooremans was shot during a house robbery at his home on 22th June 2011. He got one bullet in his hip and one in his leg. Please don't call a robbery "suspicious", as you then suggest that he was a malafide person.

Pierre Cooremans was a bona fide entrepreneur: he was fifth generation of building constructors, as you can see here (http://www.cooremans.be).
