Man jailed for carrying plastic bottle containing highly corrosive liquid

A man found carrying a plastic drinks bottle containing a highly corrosive liquid has been jailed for a year.Bradley Kerr, 21, was arrested on 18 July after being seen with the bottle near Bow Road station in east London.“The obvious inference is that it was a bottle, originally used for some innocent purpose, which had been refilled with a noxious substance, turning it into an offensive weapon,” Recorder Sally-Ann Hales QC said.
