An 'headless and bloodied body' prompted a major emergency services operation in southern Germany, before police officers discovered that it was just a doll.

Police say a passer-by spotted what appeared to be a headless corpse covered in blood lying by a stream in the Remstal valley, near Weinstadt, Stuttgart, late Monday.

Officers cordoned off the suspected crime scene and firefighters were called to retrieve the body.

Some 20 firefighters on four trucks arrived to gain access to the 'body' which was reported to be located down a crevice.

When the firefighters finally got to the 'body' they discovered that it was a doll dressed in human clothes and covered in fake blood.

'It looked just like a human corpse,' a Baden-Württemberg police spokesman later said in the force's defence.

It is thought that the doll may have been placed by the stream deliberately as a joke.
