A giant Christmas bauble which was washed up on the banks of the River Thames in London, was initially mistaken for an explosive device.
The ‘device’ was seen near Wapping in east London, so police went to investigate.
That is a Wapping great bauble. Fortunately not as given, but shows as our training teaches us 'expect the unexpected' https://t.co/e57PCeCvek
