Police called to 'assault' find zombies instead
Police cars were scrambled to a potentially serious assault only to discover two people dressed as zombies.
A passer-by rang 999 early on Sunday evening after believing they had seen a man biting a woman and assaulting her on the M62 between Manchester and Liverpool.
Officers discovered the car concerned near junction 11 for Birchwood and Warrington.
But when they pulled it over, they found two people wearing zombie make-up.
They were extras on their way to an acting job.
A spokeswoman for Greater Manchester Police said: “We got a call to reports of a man biting a woman on the M62 at junction 11 and being assaulted.
“Officers were sent out to search for the vehicle as it is a serious incident.
“But when they found the car in question, they saw they were covered in fake blood.
“Thankfully the man and woman were extras on their way to a job and it was a funny ending really.”
North West Motorway Police tweeted: “Report of female being assaulted on M62, vehicle stopped pair of extras making to a job – posing as Zombies – takes all sorts.”
