For the second time in less than a year, a shooter took aim at Rep. Barry Loudermilk but missed, the congressman said.

Loudermilk was driving through the North Georgia mountains in September with his wife when they heard a “thump” hit the back of their car, the Georgia Republican told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution in a recent interview.

“I’d just passed it off as just something falling down in the trunk or [us] just hearing things or a rock hitting the back of the car,” Loudermilk said.

But when Loudermilk and his wife, Desiree, got out of the car later, they discovered a bullet jutting from just above the bumper of the car, which belonged to their daughter.

“The trajectory was directly toward the headrest of the driver,” Loudermilk said, “but the elevation was wrong.”
