A woman in Germany raised an alarm over a large stuffed beaver. The woman mistook the toy, strapped into the passenger seat of a car, for a criminal.

The woman was returning late at night to her car in an indoor car park when she saw the suspected brigand through the window of a parked van.
Though she later admitted to only catching a glimpse in the darkness, she was sufficiently alarmed to alert the authorities.
What police found was a large toy beaver, strapped into the passenger seat. A police spokesman said he struggled to see how the toy, which has two oversized front teeth, could have been mistaken for a person.
