A Tennessee sheriff’s office is asking people not to call the agency about a “body” trapped under a closed, blood-stained garage door.
(美國)田納西州的一個警長辦公室要求民眾不要來電報案說,有一具「屍體」被卡在關起來的染血的車庫門下面。
That’s because the scene at a home in Greene County isn’t real; it’s an early Halloween display.
因為這個出現在葛林郡一處民宅的景象不是真的;那是提早佈置的萬聖節裝飾。
The Greene County Sheriff’s Department says it has been inundated with so many calls about the lifelike display that it posted a message Wednesday on the agency’s Facebook page to let people know it’s not real.
葛林郡警察局說,該局接獲有關此一栩栩如生的裝飾佈置的報案電話接到手軟,為此週三在警局臉書專頁上貼文,讓民眾知道那不是真的。
“Do NOT call 911 reporting a dead body,” says the post, which includes a photo. “Instead, congratulate the homeowner on a great display.”
「別打電話報警說有一具屍體,」該貼文說,還附上一張照片。「而是應該就裝飾佈置很棒恭賀屋主。」
Homeowner Joseph Lovergive told WJHL-TV that his family loves Halloween and always decorates early. He said deputies who responded to the first call took the boot off the stuffed clothing to make sure it wasn’t real. (AP)
屋主約瑟夫.羅佛吉夫告訴WJHL電視台,他的家人很愛萬聖節,總是七早八早就著手佈置。他說,回應第1通報案電話而前來查看的員警,還脫掉在衣服裡塞東西做成的假屍體腳上的靴子,以確認那真的不是屍體。(美聯社)
