Life-size sex doll found in Idaho river after cops spend 3 hours searching for reported body

A three-hour frantic police search for a reported body in an Idaho river led deputies to discover a life-size sex doll, according to authorities and reports.

Deputies were alerted to what was believed to be human remains seen in the Blackfoot River roughly 16 miles away from Soda Springs on Thursday morning, Caribou County Sheriff Adam Mabey told East Idaho News.

The department launched a full-out drone search of the river, and a search-and-rescue team was deployed to go into the water — only to learn the body was actually a sex doll, the outlet reported.

“When my team went in and pulled it out of the water, that’s when they realized it was just a life-size companion doll,” Mabey said.

The female doll had been floating in the river for some time, though it is still unclear how it ended up traipsing the waters, the sheriff said.

If the doll dumper is ever caught, they’ll likely face littering charges, the outlet reported.

“This whole story has generated a lot of jokes and stories and really interesting Facebook comments,” the sheriff told the outlet, noting he’d rather go “all out” for a search even if it turned out not to be a real emergency.

“I was hoping it’d blow over and no one would ever hear about it … but I can also see it’s an interesting story,” he said.

The Caribou County Sheriff’s Office did not respond to a request for comment.
