I was watching a crime reporter reporting a case of inter-tribal war between some Yorubas and Hausas in Mile 12, Lagos, today. The reporter ended up saying:
"The man was later shot on the chest".
Immediately, all alone, I just jumped up and screamed:
"No! You shoot IN the chest (not "on").
CAUTION: You shoot or stab IN... (not "ON").
More examples:
The man was stabbed in the leg while trying to escape (not "on the leg").
The lady was shot in the hand (not "on the hand").
This is crucial to note!
