Firefighters removed armed mannequin over mistaken identity concerns

Two fire crews were called to remove an "armed" mannequin from a park over fears it might be mistaken for a person in difficulty.



Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue were called at around 4.40pm on Friday after concerns were raised that passers-by might mistake the mannequin for a person.

The figure dressed in high-visibility clothing and holding what appeared to be a gun was in residence at Mount Farm Lake in Bletchley.



Crews from Bletchley and Newport Pagnell attended to retrieve the mannequin.
