This week in weird news... 2 Years ago Karma: 3  
This is pretty incredible:

Two policemen dressed as Batman and Robin captured a suspected drugs offender - in a bizarre sting operation. The Dynamic Duo - Sgt Tony Smith and PC Mike Holman - pulled on the superhero outfits in a bid to unsettle the suspected baddies. They pretended to be drunks looking for a fancy dress party and knocked on the door of the suspect's home.

Check out the article here.

I wonder how they decided who was going to be Batman and who was going to be Robin. Everyone wants to be Batman, so I'm sure there was some serious drawing of straws...

His sister in danger, 4-year-old plays hero 1 Year, 11 Months ago Karma: 4  
That crew should team up with this guy, a 4-year-old in a Power Ranger costume who saved his family from gun-toting robbers

During the robbery, a ... boy snuck into his bedroom, dressed himself in a Power Ranger costume and armed himself with a plastic sword," police said. "The child then exited his room and approached the armed suspect, in an attempt to protect his family."

Stevie likes to think he cuts an intimidating figure in his red-and-black mask and foam suit that replicates the rippling muscles of the kiddie adventure show heroes. But Evans said the robber was more startled that Stevie was able to retreat to his bedroom and morph.
