Mass Shooting? No, Yoga.

Police called to yoga class mistaken for ‘mass killing’

A member of the public in Chapel St Leonards, Lincolnshire, called emergency services to report people lying on the floor A yoga class was cut short after a member of the public called the police to report a “mass killing” after seeing several people lying on the floor. Participants in the class, which was being held at the Seascape cafe, inside the North Sea observatory in Chapel St Leonards, Skegness, Lincolnshire, were in the midst of meditation when officers turned up on Wednesday night. In a Facebook post, the cafe said someone had “reported a mass killing” after seeing people on the floor inside the building. They wrote: “If anyone heard the mass of police sirens in Chapel St Leonards at 9.30pm last night then please be reassured … “They were on their way to the observatory after someone had reported a mass killing in our building, having seen several people laying on the floor … which actually turned out to be the yoga class in meditation. “Thank you to Lincolnshire police for their prompt response. I can’t imagine for one moment what would have being going through their minds on the way.”

Shavasana, aka savasana, is referred to as "Corpse Pose" or "Dead Body Pose". Looks like someone took it a little too literally.
