Home made superhero in pepper spray attack | Herald Sun: "A SELF-proclaimed superhero could be charged by police over an alleged pepper spray attack on revelers making their way home from a Seattle nightclub."

Phoenix Jones - known for his black and yellow bulletproof and stabproof outfit - was arrested and spent the night behind bars after the incident.

A supporter of his vigilante actions recorded the clash on video, with footage released to news website Publicola yesterday showing one of the females involved chasing Mr Jones and hitting him with her handbag and shoes.

Mr Jones says he was breaking up a fight when he sprayed four people with pepper spray, but footage appears not to show any confrontation between his victims, who told police they were singing and dancing as they walked home under an overpass when Mr Jones attacked.
