SEATTLE SUPERHERO BEN FODOR: 'I'LL FIGHT ON'

UNMASKED
HOLY SMOKES. The self-proclaimed Seattle superhero who got himself into a dance dilemma the other day has been unmasked.
As we reported here the crime fighting crusader, known as Phoenix Jones got into a spot of bother the other night when cops say he pepper sprayed a group of people downtown as they left a nightclub.
He claimed he was trying to break up a fight.
But when he turned up to court yesterday, an officer made him remove his charcoal colored masked and revealed his true identity as the distinctly non superhero like, Benjamin John Francis Fodor.
Prosecutors told a judge they needed more time to decide whether to file charges and after donning his mask once again Fodor vowed to carry on fighting.
He told the Seattle Times: "In addition to being Phoenix Jones, I am also Ben Fodor, father and brother. I am just like everybody else. The only difference is that I try to stop crime in my neighborhood and everywhere else."
Jones added he's the leader of the Rain City Superhero Movement, which has conducted late-night patrols in Seattle since last year.
Anyone who wants to join can contact him through his Facebook page.
