Filey's Lifeboat Crew Finds Another Station's Lost Dummy on Rescue Call
A Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) crew in England responded to a report of a person stranded in the water, only to find that the figure was actually a training dummy lost by another crew two weeks earlier, UPI reported.
Stationed in Filey, the RNLI team received a call at 9 am on Monday about a potential person in distress at Bempton, East Yorkshire. Upon arriving at the scene and initiating a search, they recovered the training dummy from the water.
The RNLI team from Hartlepool, who had lost the dummy named Fred, expressed their gratitude on social media: "So Fred’s had an unauthorized holiday to Yorkshire. Thank you very much, Filey Lifeboat; we’ll be in touch."
The social media post received several humorous comments, including one that joked, "He better come back with some sticks of rock, he didn’t get his holiday pre-authorized," and another saying, "Well done, and I hope the Hartlepool lads are buying you a round of drinks."
