| GOOD EXCUSE |
It didn't take the caped crusader to work out that this carjacker was spinning a line, but to be fair it was quite a novel excuse.
Would be thief Micah Calamosca opened the door, sat down and told the man to get out. Except the man he picked was Detective Robert DiGiacomo who was on the look out for an assault suspect in the Shadyside area of Pittsburgh. Needless to say, the unimpressed detective pulled his gun and ordered the 21-year-old out of the car.
At that point Calamosca came up with the most novel excuse the detective, in fact any officer had heard.
He told him that the attempt was part of filming for "The Dark Knight Rises" and that taking the vehicle was in the script
Even better, WPXI says Calamosca matched the description of the assault suspect the officer was looking for.
Witness Paul Connelly told the station: "When he got into the car, he told the fella to get out and it turns out it was the undercover police car that was called to check him out.
"Out of all the cars to try and carjack, this should be the last one to choose."
Calamosco was taken into custody and faces a charge of robbery of a motor vehicle.
