Police alerted to 'mass killing' that turned out to be yoga class attendees lying down

Police in Lincolnshire were reportedly alerted to a 'mass killing' in Chapel St Leonards - that actually turned out to be a yoga class.

A member of the public had allegedly seen 'lots of people lying down' in the North Sea Observatory, and panicked, sending a huge police presence to the scene.

The observatory later released a statement saying: "Dear general public please be mindful that the observatory has lots of yoga classes happening in the evenings, we're not part of any mad cult."
