Police closed off a road for two days to investigate a report of a dead body dumped in woods - only to find out it was a discarded sex doll.

Warwickshire Police said it was with “great relief” that the hand and foot spotted poking out of undergrowth turned out to be an inflatable love aid.

Wait, nobody bothered to verify it was someone dead?

That's the dumb part. You check to see if the body is dead. Jfc.

"No pulse, no breathing, no cranial nerve reflexes – this woman is quite obviously dead."
