One of the most frequently used storylines in comic history is, ‘What if one of the good guys, became bad?’ and on Monday the Seattle Police Force got a good idea as to what would happen if Batman had decided to go rogue.
On Monday, Police were called to the Capitol Hill area of Seattle after a man was reported to have been assaulting a bouncer with a homemade spear, consisting of a knife attached to a metal pole. But the interesting part happened later, when two police officers followed the man from the bar. As he made his escape he apparently threw a ‘sharp, black, Batman-style throwing star‘ at the officers vehicle.
The man was later caught on the 800 Block of East Denny Way and taken to King County Jail on the charge of felony assault and authorities are also looking to include additional weapons and obstruction charges.
While it is certainly a terrifying thought that a man has been throwing ‘Bartarangs’ at police, they can just be thankful he doesn’t have half the skills that the actual Batman has. Tune in next week when a drunk Californian attacks a security guard with an armored suit.
What do you think? Do you think he is a comic fan? Or just a little bit weird? Let us know below!
