 Japanese police arrest 74-year-old ninja thief suspect ... Japanese police say they have finally caught a prolific thief who dressed as a ninja to carry out raids - and were surprised to find he was 74. After his usually covered face was caught on a security camera this year, he was put under surveillance which led to his arrest in July. Police now believe he is the so-called "Ninja of Heisei", thought to have carried out more than 250 break-ins. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] Police had been baffled by a series of burglaries over eight years carried out by a suspect wearing black, assuming they had been carried out by someone younger. Investigators observed the suspect, whom they say seemed little different from most elderly men, during the day. But they say he then went into an abandoned building and changed clothes before waiting until it got dark to steal. "He was dressed all in black just like a ninja," a senior official in the western Japanese city of Osaka said. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] Police said the thief displayed great physical ability, running effortlessly on top of walls instead of taking the streets. After his arrest, the man was quoted as saying: "If I were younger, I wouldn't have been caught. I'll quit now as I'm 74 and old enough." He has been charged with thefts worth 30m yen ($260,000; £200,000). [Versteckter Link - Registrierung notwendig] |

 Woodpecker blamed for dozens of broken mirrors ... Neighbors thought they were being terrorized by vandals. It turns out it was a bird. Last Friday Kevin Morrisey walked out to his Ford Explorer to find glass broken on the ground. “I saw the glass, said, 'Son of a biscuit, it got hit,'” Morrisey said. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] His side mirror smashed and he wasn’t alone: One of up to two dozen victims in the Nob Hill subdivision of Snellville. The “suspect” struck in broad daylight. Neighbors thought it must be kids with a BB gun or hammer. “I’ve been hearing them, running up and down the creek behind my house,” said one neighbor. Neighbor John Hancock’s wife’s mirror got hit too. He called police and officers took reports and even sent more patrols into the neighborhood. Until the culprit was caught red-“headed.” “I thought, ‘Oh my God I got taken in by a woodpecker,’” Hancock said. The woodpecker was about the size of a crow. The woodpecker was not actually trying to break the glass. It saw its reflection and thought it was attacking another woodpecker. |
