Police find gun hidden in suspect’s private part
ADA, OK (KFOR/CNN) - Home of the Hercules. That's what the Dairy Lou is known for. But about 3 a.m Monday, police in Oklahoma made an unusual find in the parking lot.
Two women kicked back in a car, one had a warrant for her arrest. And a drug dog let officers know the other woman needed to be searched.
Police took Jennifer Delancy and Christie Dawn Harris into custody.
"On the way there one of them tells the officer she has another hypodermic needle in her shoe, they remove that. The other arrestee says she needed to use the restroom. She repeats it," said Chris Ross, Pontotoc County DA.
And officers soon find out why she had to go so badly. During book in, a female officer noticed something bizarre during the search.
"The officer observed the handle of a revolver sticking out from inside her body," Ross said.
Court records say it was this "wooden and metal item sticking out from Harris' vagina area."
"It was a five shot. It was loaded and as she turned around she saw more plastic baggies, larger plastic baggies wedged in the crack of her buttocks," Ross said.
Those baggies contained meth. They were removed along with the gun.
"It would seem to be a very dangerous way to carry a loaded firearm. If it goes off it's only going one place," Ross said.
Both women have long criminal records already and this time around will be charged with drug possession.
Delancy also faces charges for trying to smuggle that gun into jail.
