Emergency Crews Mistakenly Rescue Doll From Hot Car.

I guess you can't be too careful these days.

HOBOKEN, N.J. —

You can call it a case of mistaken identity.

Emergency responders in Hoboken, N.J. thought they were rescuing a baby left in a hot car, but instead pulled out a doll.
The life-sized doll was left perched in a car seat by a 2-year-old girl. The girl’s grandmother admits the doll was strikingly lifelike, however she wishes crews would have taken a closer look.

“The doll is here. All you have to do is go like this, and there’s the doll,” Kitty Mieles said as she showed news crews where the doll was located.

Officials said they weren’t taking any chances on potentially saving a life.
