THE EYE DECEIVED

A distressed caller rang police on 16 December to report an elderly woman “frozen to death” in a parked car in Hudson, New York State. Officers found a seat-belted figure wearing an oxygen mask sitting motionless in the front passenger seat of the snow-covered car. They broke the rear window and discovered it was an extremely realistic mannequin. The car owner arrived and said he used it for his job selling medical training aids. [CNN] BBC News, 17 Dec 2016.
