How would you react after calling the cops that you saw someone 'dragged' a kid inside the trunk of a car, only for the cops to arrive at their home,looked at the car's trunk and then burst out laughing? Weird right? that's what happened recently in the US.

An anonymous fellow quickly alerted the police after  seeing a driver puts a child in the rear of a car. The unnamed fellow perhaps thought the child had been kidnapped because where the driver puts the kid was 'in the boot' a different  spot entirely.But unknown to the good Samaritan that car turned out to be a Tesla Model S all-electric luxury vehicle with the $1500 optional third row seats for children that are 37-inches tall, and  they are positioned at the car's giant hatchback.

Tesla Model S third-row seats for children

So the policemen drove to the residence of the driver to check what was going on. Waited for the driver of the Model S to step out, and when he did...the man went straight to the rear of the car and pulled out a little girl out of the car's trunk. Of course, the officers were amazed when they found that there are three seats in there. Watch the video above.

Nevertheless the officers did their job pretty well by still asking for their identification even after realizing it was not a child abduction. And the parents of the little girl conducted themselves very well.

If it were you, what would you do?
