Maya Kaufman, Patch:

Police responded to a 911 call reporting what looked to be an unconscious baby by 215th Street and 35th Avenue about 7:40 a.m. Tuesday, an NYPD spokesperson said.

Police initially told news reporters that first responders pronounced the three-month-old baby “dead” from an unknown cause. Officers cordoned off a crime scene, and detectives started searching the area for evidence.

Then representatives from the city medical examiner’s office came to pick up the body and discovered the “baby” was just a prop, according to the Associated Press.
