Video footage has emerged on social media (below) of the moment that a Nebraska State Trooper came across a suspicious looking vehicle in Chadron, USA.
In the footage, Sgt Mick Downing exits his vehicle and walks over to the driver’s side of the ‘Mustang’ in order to speak to the ‘driver’ after the ‘vehicle’ had been left in a precarious position.
The video starts with the trooper confirming to his control room that he is going to be ‘out with the vehicle’.
When he walks over to the driver’s side of the car he realises that it is, in fact, a snow
He reacts by saying:
‘What the heck!? Some people make snowmen.
‘Not the people in the northwest corner of the panhandle. They make snow cars. Snow Mustangs’.
In keeping with the good spirit of the situation, the trooper then ‘issues a ticket’ to the snow-vehicle as part the joke.
Just who made the sculpture and why remains a mystery.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' back in 2018 was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services & NHS which seemed only ever to highlight negative aspects of the job.
We want to be the unheard voice of the remarkable men and women who serve in the emergency services, NHS and armed forces. And with around 500k page views each month, we are getting there!
