An elaborate birthday surprise in Bielefeld, Germany led to an emergency police operation after a concerned member of the public called them.
Police rushed to rescue a man in a park with his head buried in a pile of sand, only to find a life-sized shop mannequin.
The kneeling dummy dressed in jeans and a shirt had a sign beside it saying, '50 na und?', (50 and what?).
"It was clearly a prank intended for someone's 50th birthday," said a police spokesman. "But the person who called us was clearly convinced by it and called us in good faith thinking they were helping someone in trouble," they added.

This can;'t be true; Bielefeld doesn't exist, it is a hoax!
Gee, I hope when I get my head trapped in sand there's someone else than this good Samaritan to help me. How about going and pulling his head out so he won't suffocate while waiting for the police?
It is just misspelled, anon. It is actually Bielefeld, Germany and it does exist.
