The officers ransacked Britney Pennington's garden in Virginia Beach, USA, only to find out that the “deceased woman” she found was in fact an abandoned sex doll.
A 25-year-old girl had a twisted stomach when she and 29-year-old Taylor Day saw a bare leg sticking out of the bushes by a stream near their home. The couple spent half an hour trying to figure out what it was before finding the binoculars and getting a better look at the find.
Britney could clearly see a pair of legs and other body parts in the distance. She quickly called 911 and reported the incident to the police.
Moments later, six police cars, a fire engine and ambulance teams gathered outside Britney's house and cordoned off her garden.
Britney said: “It was a really creepy find. I remember thinking, «If there is a killer there, we must run.»
“We thought it was a real murder, and when the police arrived, they also said, 'Yes, there may have been a murder.'
Fortunately, the officers solved this murder in a matter of minutes by examining the crime scene and body.
«It was an abandoned sex doll: one of the most realistic and softest dolls that I think is worth a lot of money.»
“Everyone was delighted that it was a fake. Thirty people from the emergency service took pictures and said: «It is unlikely that we will draw up documents on this case.»
“This is definitely the first time I've ever come across something like this while fishing,” adds Britney.
