Guy slips through authorities with a loaded gun

Bennie Ellison, 39, a Chicago man, was arrested on drug charges, and was taken to jail. He was patted down (once) and then taken to jail. When he got to jail, he was patted down again (twice). He was then patted down again (third time) at booking. The next day he was taken to court for his bond hearing. He was patted down again (fourth time), and avoided the metal detector by slipping into another line. While he was in court, he was uncuffed.

Now, how did he manage to keep a .380 semiautomatic handgun on him? He tied the gun to the drawstring of his pants, and let the gun dangle between his legs. A .380 semiautomatic handgun is the teeny gun you see women carrying on tv.

The kicker to this? The gun was loaded and already had a bullet in the chamber (which means it's ready to go when you pull the trigger).
