Headline: 'Bloody Hand' Discovered In Canal Discovered To Be Plastic

Caption: British police rushed to the scene when they received a report of a bloody dismembered hand floating in a canal. West Midlands Police responded to the call in the Wednesfield area of Wolverhampton on Wednesday (13 Feb). Thankfully, after fishing out the potential grisly specimen, it was discovered to be nothing but a discarded mannequin hand with speckled red paint resembling blood. Wednesfield Police said: "We have just been called out to reports of a bloody hand floating in the canal just behind Wednesfield High Street. After some delicate fishing out we were relieved to find it was a plastic mannequin hand. WARNING graphic images of a detached mannequin hand attached." Online commentators also saw the funny side of the situation, with light-hearted comments including "Got hand it to the person who fished it out", "Top work by the short arm of the law!", and "There’s no arm in it".
