The British media is going batty over footage of a chubby crime-fighter bringing a wanted crook to justice while dressed in an old-school Batman costume.
The Caped Crusader stunned cops at the police station in Bradford, West Yorkshire, on Feb. 25 when he showed up with a track suit-wearing thug in tow.
"I've caught this one for you," the masked vigalente told cops, The Telegraph newspaper reported.
The 27-year-old suspect was a two-bit thief wanted for burglary. He's due in court on Friday, according to reports.
The incident was caught by the station's closed-caption security cameras.
"The Batman outfit was a normal fancy dress costume and whoever had decided to put it on knew the suspect was wanted by police," the spokesman told The Telegraph.
The Bradford Batman's identity remained a mystery.
He isn't the first Average Joe to try crime-fighting as Bruce Wayne's alter-ego.
Last year, police in Petoskey, Mich., were plagued by a paunchy local dubbed "The Petoskey Batman" who showed up at crime scenes in a sweaty homemade batsuit.
Mark Wayne Williams, 33, was last busted in October after cops said he wouldn't leave the scene of a car accident.
