Times Wire Reports
A Detroit woman avoided serious injury when her underwire bra deflected a bullet, police said.
The woman, 57, who was not identified, saw a group of men breaking into a neighbor’s house Tuesday morning, police said, and one took a shot at her. The bullet struck the underwire on her bra.
“It did slow the bullet down,” police spokesman Phillip Cook said. “She sustained injuries, but they’re not life-threatening.”
