Police hunting mystery swordsman

Police on Tyneside are seeking a man carrying a sword who came to the aid of plain clothes officers during a burglary attempt.

The officers were threatened by a man with a knife after they discovered armed men trying to break into a house in Laygate, South Shields.

Another man armed with a samurai sword appeared and attacked the man with the knife, before leaving the scene.

Three men have been charged with aggravated burglary.

One faces an additional charge of attempted wounding with intent to resist arrest.





I think he left lots of "Z"s cut around the town.

Phew, I thought he went slicing off heads.

Vigilantes are so cool kicking

Wow...

Are we sure this isn't Masterbruce ?

Not many "Superheroes" carry "dulled" blades.

Kenshin Himura uses a reverse blade sword (no edge at all)

where did this sword guy by the weapon anyway?

I guess one pro about being a gun-phobic country, is that you guys have more interesting burglary stories.

I don't think you can carry them in pulic Stateside either (except in Texas, you can walk around with a AK in TX and no one would care)

In AZ and NM, it's legal to carry a gun in plain sight also.

You can buy a good sword online?

You can buy anything online. So yeah. You may want to do a bit of research prior though.

I think its sad that they are going to arrest him if they find him. Well, maybe not, he must be pretty messed in the head to be running around with a samurai sword.

Or hardcore.

Or hardcore. Yea man. That's pretty bad ass. I bet he's an anime nut who probably tried to become a police officer or some kind of "fighter for justice" and was rejected because of his metal instability. He then got his hands on a real sword and thought, "I'm going to go out and fight crime!"

I was thinking that he's probably an anime nut myself.

Next up: The kid out of Pokemon foils an assasination attempt on the Queen!!

Or something.....

Some guy got arrested for killing his father with a samurai sword...wonder if it's the same fellow?
