Brazilian Military Police Hire Real Life Batman To Fight Crime

Seriously! In an effort to tackle the crime ridden streets of Brazil, military police have hired a former soldier who will don the outfit of Batman while tackling crime.

The lads over at Bleeding Cool have spotted a story posted on Brazilian news website, Ovale. Apparently, Brazilian military police have hired retired soldier André Luiz Pinheiro, 50, to help combat crime in some of the most crime riddled city neighbourhoods. The twist? He happens to be a major comic book fan who dresses up as Batman for children's birthday parties and will patrol the streets dressed as the Caped Crusader.

This is all part of a program set up by UAPC (Advanced Community Policing Unit) and it hasn't yet been decided what exactly his duties will be, although local residents are happy with the plans. 52 year old housewife Fatima Ferreira said, "Children do not have space or where leisure and play. Is this a good project to have such a great character. Will help rescue the values ​​that are lost here." [Quote Translated Using Google Chrome]

WTF, lmao never heard of this stuff. And I doubt that the residents are happy with it, they're just enjoying being interviewed :P. What city is this btw? I wonder what city is here is so idiotic to "hire" a batman guy to do this

hehehe, it's just relevant to say that he'll not patrol the streets of Taubaté (city of the countryside of São Paulo state) or anything like that. He'll be more some kind of police PR, on campaigns called something like "movement for peace", helpiing the integration between the police force and that community.

But noone's gonna respect a Batman who wears the bat-nipples.

As much as this is screwed up, this guy seems boss. He has inspired me to dress as Captain Planet to help the better-hood of man.

I'm Bat...BAM....CSI called in to scoop up Batguts from bullet to face.

Because in the comics, the villains never seemed to aim for the big facial opening. Real life? Yeah, they'll find it.

I hope the suit has real body armor, or we'll be reading his obituary very soon.

Some criminal is going to grab those "bat-ears" and sling his ass into traffic, while laughing about the nipples.

I bet someone is going to get sued by DC for this. Trademark infringment just like the company that makes custom Batcars.

Huh... you guys don't seem to realise that he's probably just gonna speak to kids in schools and visit homeless shelters. No law enforcement community would be dumb enough to think this could work. Speeches and handshakes, that's it.
