Flowers and tributes were left in an alleyway where the body of a mystery dead baby was found - before police realised it was only a chicken foetus.
A member of the public discovered the remains in a back alley in the Anfield area of Liverpool.

Police cordoned off the scene but soon realised that it was not a human but a chicken foetus.

Well-wishers had laid more than a dozen bunches of flowers at the scene, along with cards and teddy bears.

Local gossip

One of the cards read: "RIP Little Baby. Safe in the arms of Jesus. From someone who is a loving mother xxxx."

Merseyside Police told the community on Monday to "stop grieving, it's only a chicken".

A spokeswoman for Merseyside Police said: "It seems a member of the public saw the remains of a foetus, which possibly resembled a human foetus, and called us.

"We cordoned off the area to investigate, as we would with any possible suspicious death, but it became apparent it was not a human foetus.

"The flowers and cards are obviously the result of local gossip, but we can assure people that the remains were not human."

Conservative MP and editor of The Spectator Boris Johnson was criticised last year after commenting in the magazine that Liverpudlians were "hooked on grief".

Believe me there are some incredibly stupid people in this city but then again aren't they everywhere these days? Too much Turkey Twizzlers & take-aways probably!

My favourite story of Weegie stupidity (as I've reported before elsewhere on here) is that of the parents of a newborn girl who called their daughter "Female" as that's what the midwives put on her wrist & ankle. They "pronounce" it Femally!
 
Liverpool should have razor wire and landmines placed around it to stop it's ********, pilfering, pikey, chippy inhabitants from annoying the rest of the country.

The Americans should've used the place to test the atom bomb rather than laying waste to a tract of desert in Arizona..!

I'm not a fan of our scouse chums

& those of us going to Tranmere early in 2006 get to experience the nicest most well-kept part of Scouseland!
