LONDON (Reuters) :
British police quizzed Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood about a body in his car until it turned out to be a cardboard cut-out of actor and former footballer Vinnie Jones, The Sun tabloid said yesterday.
Police and ambulance staff swarmed the rock star's Bentley after a woman in southwest London mistook the likeness of Jones, used to promote the movie Gone in 60 Seconds, for a corpse.
"She thought there had been a murder, but the cut-out is thin so he'd have to have been run over by a steamroller," Wood's wife Jo told the mass-circulation daily newspaper.
Jones, a former midfielder for several English soccer clubs, was very much alive at the London premiere of the film.
