A New Hampshire policeman broke a car window to take a child out of the hot car and save his life only to discover it was a realistic lifelike doll. Jason McCain got a call to go to a Wal-Mart parking lot and found a child in the back seat of the car wrapped in a blanket. He broke the window and seeing the pale color of the ‘baby’ he thought it was already dead. When starting resuscitation he realized it was a doll. The car and doll owner named Caroline bought the lifelike doll for $2,000 to help her get over the loss of her son. In an interview to Washington Post she said she has 40 such dolls at home she bought to deal with her loss at the advice of her therapist. Officer Jason said he was astounded at the creative solutions people find to deal with their painful loss, but at least he knows that if the baby was real he did what he could in his line of duty.
