A night out ended in embarrassment for a Bury woman who had to call firefighters to free her from a pair of handcuffs.

The reveller, in her 20s, had carried the cuffs with her during her Saturday night out with friends. But later, she clipped them around her wrists - not realising she didn't have the keys.

Officers at Bury fire station used bolt cutters to remove the metal cuffs when the woman called at 2.30am.
