A Springfield woman who began lobbying against gun violence after her
son was shot to death in 2002 was arrested last week when police
allegedly found an illegal gun and drugs in her home.

Annette "Flirty" Stevens, however, said Monday she's innocent, and the
arrest is an attempt by police to get her to give up information about
unsolved crime in the city.

The handgun, which had a scratched-off serial number, and drugs
allegedly were discovered Friday morning inside Stevens' home in the
2500 block of South 15th Street. Authorities said they obtained a search
warrant for the residence as part of an ongoing investigation of a
recent series of drive-by shootings. No one has been hurt in the gunplay.
