Per this evening's "Manchester Evening" (Bryan Horne reports - page 15)
You cannot make it up!
A court in Edinburgh heard that a young mum stopped for drink driving had more than a bottle of wine in her person.
She has

a
loaded high tech gun hidden in her knickers
Beats a chastity belt then!
She claimed she bought the gun - er disguised as a keyring - in a pub and believed it sprayed CS gas?
Now this is worrrying - espeically in today's climate of gun -toting terror, This gun might be 3 inches but it can embed a .32 slug into a wooden floor from just 20 metres
Police discovered it during a strip search at Dundee police station. She was stopped in December 2003 and failed a roadside breath test - and police found caannabis resin in the car as well.
At the first hearing a year ago - woman (Nicola Sterling) pleaded guilty to breaching fire arms regulations and admitted drink driving. She was fined £100 and given a 12 month driving ban. She was also placed on a good behaviour order - and the firearms sentence was deferred for a year.
She kept her nose clean and yesterday walked free from court with no further fines or community service orders.
But just goes to show - you just do not know what IG et al really deal with
