YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, Oct. 19 (UPI) -- A woman has been charged with robbing a teenager on a Youngstown, Ohio, bus and then hiding her loaded handgun in her son's book bag.
Bail was set at $85,000 for Shana Starks, 26, the Youngstown Vindicator reported. She was being held Monday in the Mahoning County Jail.
Starks was arrested Friday at a bus terminal. Court records said the bus driver told security guards there a teenager said Starks had shown him a gun tucked in her waistband and demanded his Sony PSP handheld game system.
The boy allegedly told the driver he was afraid to report the theft to police.
The guards found a loaded handgun in a book bag carried by Stark's 10-year-old son, police said. He also had a Sony PSP, which he said had been given to him, the Vindicator reported.
