Child’s Toy brings panic to entire city
A toy black leopard left lying in a footpath sparked panic in a Chinese city.

The 91cm stuffed toy scared pedestrians and caused a traffic jam in Xiamen city.
“Dogs were scared and passers-by were running for their lives. Some of them ran into traffic, causing a back-up.”
Eventually, police officers arrived with an armed anesthetist from the local Haicang Zoo.
“After observing for a while, we saw the leopard was stationary, so one of the officers gingerly went ahead and touched it. Then we realized it’s a toy,” said a police spokesperson

You’d think one of the “passersby” would have been like “Guys! Chill! I work at the toy panther factory down that street and THAT is a toy panther!”

You can’t shop text.
Just call it fake. We have enough slang already. Try to keep it to things that make sense.
(A Dog that can SMELL if you’re stuffed is not going to be afraid of a toy. the story is obviously fake people)
