Another Bullet Proof Bra
Updated : Apr 23, 2009
VeryHappyPig told you last week about the Brazilian lady, whose life was saved thanks to the large amount of money she had hidden in her bra.
But here at Irelands first and only dedicated up lifting and happy news portal we bring you the follow up, bullet proof bra part two, down to the wire!
A 57-year-old Detroit woman avoided serious injury when the under-wire on her bra deflected a bullet shot at her from next door, police said.
The woman, who lives on the West side of Detroit, saw a group of men breaking into a neighbour's house on Tuesday morning. When the men spotted her, one of them fired a shot at her, a police spokesman said.
The bullet struck the underwire on the woman's bra and that saved her from a more serious injury, police said.
"It did slow the bullet down," said Detroit police spokesman Phillip Cook. "She sustained injuries but they're not life threatening."
The woman, who was not identified, was treated at a nearby hospital. The suspects in the shooting drove away.
VeryHappyPig is lead to believe the Irish Army are fitting all its soldiers, both male and female, on overseas duties with bras. Before VeryHappyPig read of these stories we were already a big fan of bra’s and their contents.
