Batman Sighting Puts Schools on Lockdown

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) -- To an Arizona middle school, Batman! Three schools in the north Phoenix suburb of Cave Creek were on lockdown for about 45 minutes Wednesday morning after a student at Desert Arroyo Middle School reported seeing a person dressed as Batman run across campus, jump a fence and disappear into the desert, Scottsdale police Sgt. Mark Clark said.

The student described the person as 6 feet 3 inches tall and possibly male.

"We're assuming it was male, although they did have a mask on," Clark said.

Officers combed the desert around the middle school. A nearby elementary school and high school also were on lockdown as officers sought the caped crusader.

The result - no Batman.

"It's just one of those interesting little stories that we looked into but we couldn't find anyone," Clark said.

Nedda Shafir, a spokeswoman for the Cave Creek Unified School District, said putting all the schools on lockdown was a precautionary measure.

"We didn't want to take any chances," Shafir said. "We just don't want to put anyone at risk."

i wish something like that would happen at my school.. thats hilarious.

I wish that would happen near my school.

LOL, thats frickin awsome!!!! batman, AH-HAhahaaaaaa!!!!!!!

Wow... that's ridiclous.

How long do you think this thread will be open for?
But yeah, that's pretty funny.

Totally cracked me up

6" 3? hmmm Costa?....
Hahaha anyway, poor americans. too scared.

Only in the U.S. Anywhere else in the world, and the kids would go look for Batman instead of hide. I'm from Mexico, and I know that I would be looking for a high five from Batman. Fo sho'

pssh. us americans would also. i'd hug him.

Ahaha, was probably a prank.

Wait, why did a batman sighting cause them to lockdown a school? That's just fucking stupid.

if anyone remembers the albany high stabbings.
well some girl from there came into my school last year and beat up a girl and that put the school on lockdown.
it turns out they were fighting over a guy
freakin hilarious

also the catfights about boys at my old school were seriously violent
they resulted in a lockdown because we were never sure if those girls were prepared to lash out at us or not

HILAROUS

id just stand there watching them laughing my ass off

??????

i want batman to come and lockdown my school!

oh no batmans coming
that means spiderman isnt too far behind
we have to lock down our school for superheroes wearing tights
whats this world coming too

dun dun dun , thank gawd he hasnt came to my school yet! lol!

Damn.

omg. haha.

"The result - no Batman."

I do. Some of those got pretty bad. Seriously there was like a fight almost everyday there, it was always on the news. I remember they tried to get the kids from fighting by bringing basketball players and all these other people b.c they thought if someone famous told them to stop fighting then they would. And how they tried to seperate them or w.e that just made it even worse.

I FOUND HIM, GUYS.

HAHAHAH. Thank you for making my day.

Shit! And I would've gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you medaling kids!

ROFLMAO. George W. Bush spreads his stupidity to the masses. "Whoa is that Batman?" "OMG QUICK HIDE WE GOTS JOKER!!111!1!11!!1"

I think you could afford to lose some lbs.

I am amused

LOL

Nice. Heh, I want to do something like that now...
