"Somebody in their car spotted who they thought was a person covered in snow and called us," a West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman told ITVnews. "An ambulance arrived straight away and our crew was there for exactly minute and one second."
"The woman who called us had good intentions," he continued, "but it’s unfortunate that she didn’t go over to check first that it wasn’t a statue."
The statue is actually called "The Lady in the Park" and according to Brampton Park's website she was erected to commemorate "all the women in Newcastle-under-Lyme who lost husbands, sons and friends in the First World War and subsequent conflicts."
Well done to West Midlands Ambulance Servive on their speedy arrival, even if they discovered they were not in fact needed. Hopefully in future they'll be called to more pressing emergencies.
