Not your typical snowman.

So creepily realistic was their design that even the local police had to stop to investigate.

"Last evening, a car from our team was surveillance through the Oosterpark, until they suddenly saw a person lying lifeless on the ground in the distance," Amsterdam Police wrote on Facebook.

"A victim of a crime? Had anyone become unwell?"

"After our colleagues approached the 'body' they saw that barrier tape or ambulance could happily be omitted... it was a good example of 'creative with snow', including orange carrot!"

"In any case, the colleagues could laugh about it."
