SEATTLE — They are a group of costumed and caped do-gooders out to fight crime, and now they’re on the streets of Seattle.
\nA handful of men and women say they’re part of a national group of
“Real Life Superheroes”<\/a> and locally they call themselves the Rain City Movement.
\nTheir website says they embody the values presented in super heroic comic books. Now they’ve organized here and are patrolling Seattle streets at night.
\nBut, police say these superheroes could cause harm. They carry Tasers, nightsticks and pepper spray, but they don’t carry guns.
\nAt a Capitol Hill gas station last week, a bystander mistook a masked superhero for a masked robber. Police warn someone could get hurt.
\n“If you want to dress up as a superhero that’s great. Go to the conventions.” said Mark Jamieson, spokesman for the Seattle Police Department.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
