"A woman in Dumfries, Scotland, found a live scorpion in her shopping as she unpacked her groceries. Amanda Johnstone spotted the creature scuttling across the floor towards her 6-year-old son Ross and elderly mother Gloria, who jumped out of its way.  Amanda called her nephew Aaron, 29, to scoop up the scorpion in a pint glass while she contacted animal rescuers, The Sun reports. She said: &amp;quot;Ross started shouting, &amp;#039;Scorpion, scorpion!&amp;#039; I saw it and I was like, &amp;#039;Oh my god, this is a bloody scorpion&amp;#039;. &amp;quot;Mum&amp;#039;s just had her knees replaced. I&amp;#039;ve never seen her move so fast - the op definitely worked. I was absolutely terrified. I thought they were all poisonous.&amp;quot; It was later identified as a non-lethal North American desert hairy scorpion, most likely to have been transported in bananas bought at a local shop. Animal rescue officer Tricia Smith said: &amp;quot;Desert hairy scorpions aren&amp;#039;t deadly but if bitten the pain can vary from that of a bee-sting to intense inflammation and sickness.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
