Plush Tiger Sighting Spurs 45-minute Standoff with Scottish Police

Police in Scotland were a little red-faced after it emerged that officers had a stand-off with a giant stuffed tiger for nearly 45 minutes.

UK Cop Humour posted photos of the giant plush toy on Facebook, noting that after photos were sent to the station, "numerous units, including three ARV's and a dog handler, [were] sent to the farm to tackle this beast."
