Metal underwire in Detroit woman's bra deflects bullet from men breaking into neighbor's home

DETROIT (AP) — The metal underwire in a Detroit woman's bra was credited with deflecting a bullet fired at her during a break-in at a neighbor's home. Detroit police Officer Leon Rahmaan said the 57-year-old woman apparently looked out her window Tuesday when one of three men fired the shot.

He said the slug smashed through her window pane before hitting the bra's underwire. It did not penetrate her skin.

Her Guardian angel was watching.

Yes! Never lean out the window unless you are wearing an underwire bra!!! : ) LOL

This cautionary tale is almost worth tolerating that moment when the underwire decides to *sproinnng* out of the fabric and impale our chest wall - or worse, poke right through our sweaters!!!

Hahahahahahahaha..... what a lucky woman!
XOXOXO
