"I immediately got off the highway and got out of the car." Shaken, the retired corrections officer saw the driver's-side window of his minivan was splintered and the roof had a hole "the size of a 50˘ piece." A policeman stopped to help, but Cable, 53, says he could not convince him that the shard on the floorboard had come from a bullet, and the officer went...
...splash water onto the engine and the truck coughs back to life. The frightening ritual bath is repeated over the next few days. But when the truck rolls to a stop on the seventh day, something more serious is wrong. This time, the bath doesn't work. The drivers are nervous as they try to get the motor turning again. No luck.

There will be no party tonight. His driver is taking him to XM Satellite Radio's New York City studios, where Dash and his Roc-A-Fella crew put on a weekly talk show to plug his rap, clothing and film empire. Slouched in his leather seat, Dash grabs control of the CD remote and makes a selection. It isn't Roc-A-Fella superstar...
