Real-life superhero stops carjacking in Seattle

His name is Phoenix Jones, and he is one of several members of the Rain City Heroes, a group of costumed vigilantes who patrol the streets of Seattle. (I am not making any of this up.) You might expect them to be really ineffective at stopping crimes. It's probably not that easy to just come upon a mugging while out on a stroll, right? But Phoenix actually did exactly that! Sure, it was a carjacking and not an alien plot to invade our world, but I'm sure the guy who owned the car is pretty happy about it:

Obvious Question Number 1: How could he be anonymous if this news crew knew how to find him, where his secret room was, and followed him in to change?

Obvious Question Number 2: Why wouldn't you patrol at least in a group of two if you're part of a team?

Obvious Question Number 3: How long until one of these people gets stabbed?

"Bro, dude, that's amazing man" That guy deserved a nice carjacking. I do love the idea that this will create a villain though. Awesome story.

...oh, what? I'm sorry I was super distracted by the hotness of the guy getting carjacked.

At least he thought ahead. Stun baton? Kevlar and stab plates?

Best story of the year so far, oh wait maybe it's the homeless guy with an amazing voice...but both of those stories have already been done by Hollywood, so that's a bummer.

Phoenix looks like he's got some gorgeous legs on him, but those pants need to be just a couple inches longer...
