When police pulled over a car on the M11 on Saturday, they thought they'd caught a murderer red-handed - after all, they could see a body rolled up in carpet on the back seat. But things weren't quite what they seemed.

Police were called out to what looked like a dead body rolled up on a carpet on the motorway.

The person who called police was naturally concerned when they saw a pair of feet in black trainers and socks dangling over the front headrest of another car while driving on the M11 on Saturday afternoon. But when officers responded, they found that they actually belonged to a model of Prince Charming on his way to a themed birthday party.But they soon realised it was a false alarm, and that the trainers belonged to a mannequin.

‘We managed to track the vehicle down in Angel Drove, Ely where our officers discovered there were indeed a pair of feet… belonging to a mannequin dressed as Prince Charming who was on his way to a themed birthday!‘Thankfully this was a false alarm. If you see something suspicious please contact us online. Always call 999 in an emergency.’

Police posted a photo to the Policing East Cambridgeshire page on Facebook, where many found the mix-up quite amusing.Others added that they had seen the car, with one writing: ‘Knew mum wasn’t crazy’.Get in touch with our news team by emailing us at
