They’re trained to be prepared for numerous dangerous and unusual situations.

According to Delta Police spokesperson Cris Leykauf, the mannequin-head-filled dumpster was found on the night of January 7, in downtown Ladner.
“Itâs definitely not a common occurrence,” she told Daily Hive. “It was noteworthy enough for the officer in question to snap a photo of it and forward it to his Sergeant.”
And while the officer apparently found “a whole garbage bag of mannequin heads” in the dumpster,  Leykauf said police are not pursuing the matter any further.
“Itâs not a criminal code offence to dispose of slightly creepy looking mannequin heads,” she added.
