A yoga class in the United Kingdom was mistaken for the scene of a grisly mass-murder after a bystander became panicked about bodies laying about the floor.
Police in Chapel St. Leonard’s, Lincolnshire, were called to the Seascape Cafe at the North Sea Observatory around 9:30 p.m. Wednesday with the report of a “mass killing.”
Officers stormed the building only to find a routine yoga class underway.

“If any one heard the mass of police sirens in Chapel St Leonard’s at 9:30pm last night then please be reassured,” Seascape Cafe wrote on their Facebook page after the incident. “They were on their way to the Observatory after someone had reported a mass killing in our building. Having seen several people laying on the floor…. which actually turned out to be the Yoga Class in meditation.”
The North Sea Observatory hosts regular yoga classes in the evenings, and the call was made after a passerby saw the practitioners laying limp on the ground, mistaking them for corpses.
Officers say that the call was an honest mistake made with sincere “good intentions.”
