PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. – A lifelike tiger statue caused a brief moment of panic for a Prince William County Police officer recently.
The officer spotted the tiger statue while on patrol in a county shopping center.
“One of our officers experienced a moment of...uh...shock before realizing this little guy was harmless,” the department wrote on Facebook.
The department advised business owners to dispose of “realistic, life-size animal statues” with caution.
