       Sheriff’s deputies in Georgia were surprised to learn last week that what was reported to be a woman’s body found along a hiking trail was actually a "life-sized doll, complete with accessories."

       The doll, dubbed Selena, was seen in the Hitchiti National Forest and was reported to authorities last Thursday but responding deputies quickly realized it was just a case of littering, not homicide, the Jones County Sheriff’s Office said.

       "The victim, now named Selena, is a little under the weather, but she has been having a nice day and is expected a make a full recovery," the department joked on its Facebook page.
