WACO, Texas, Sept. 9 (UPI) — A Texas police department said a drug discovery during a traffic stop led to a more startling surprise: a fully loaded handgun concealed in a suspect’s vagina.
The Waco Police Department said they pulled over a vehicle for a traffic violation about 11 p.m. Monday and discovered more than 30 grams of methamphetamine under driver Gabriel Garcia’s seat and inside passenger Ashley Cecilia Castaneda’s purse, along with digital scales.
Garcia, 30, and Castaneda, 31, were both arrested and charged with possession of methamphetamine in a drug free zone, as the traffic stop was within 1,000 feet of West Elementary School.
Police said Castaneda advised officers while she was being transported to jail that she had concealed a loaded handgun in her vagina. Police stopped transport and a female officer conducted a body cavity search that confirmed the suspect was hiding a Smith and Wesson pistol with a round chambered and a full magazine of bullets.
Castaneda was issued an additional charge of unlawfully carrying a weapon.
