REAL LIFE NEWS: SPIDERMAN ARRESTED FOR ASSAULT

by Hazed

No, not the real Spiderman of course - even in his "bad Spidey" black-costumed phase in the last film, our hero didn't resort to actually beating people up to work off his depression! This was an imposter Spiderman, one of those costumed people that work Hollywood Boulevard to get tips from tourists. Walk down the road and you'll see all kinds of super heroes, not to mention Elvis and Spongebob Squarepants! Well, I guess it's a living.

This particular Spiderman impersonator got aggressive and hit another man in the face and arms. The victim knew him and reported to police that his attacker was Christopher Loomis. He didn't want to press charges, but the police went after Loomis anyway because he had outstanding warrants in Los Angeles.

Trouble was, they had to figure out which Spidey he was! Yes, there were apparently four fake Spiderman on the Boulevard that day. The first one the police stopped wasn't Loomis, but the second was one our guy, so he was book and held on $5,500 bond.

Here's some pictures of the kinds of costumes you will see on Hollywood Boulevard.
