Real-Life Superhero Fights Crime in Seattle
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A real-life Superhero dressed in tights, a mask and a black and gold Lycra suit says he is helping to make the streets of Seattle safer by scaring away criminals, Sky News reported Thursday.
The man, called Phoenix Jones, wears a bullet proof vest, has stab protection and is armed with a taser and tear gas.
When he walks into an area, criminals leave because they see the suit and don't want to take him on, Jones says.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Like Superman meets Batman, on most nights Phoenix walks into a comic store, enters a back room hidden behind shelves and transforms into his character.
He has already managed to stop a man breaking into and possibly stealing a car.
The would-be victim, known as Dan, was walking back to his vehicle in a car park when he saw a man with a metal strip trying to open his car.
