It took all of Hollywood's crime fighters to stop a man Tuesday as he broke the windows of four LAPD patrol cars.
Wielding a metal rod, the man smashed all the windows except the windshields of four cruisers near Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Avenue around 1 p.m., said LAPD Officer Bruce Borihanh.
Raw video of the incident, shot by a KTLA photographer working in the area, shows someone dressed as Darth Vader holding a light saber and pointing at passersby as the man swings the rod into the window of a car behind him. It shows some people staring as they walk past the car.
The oblivious Vader stops and looks on as the man pulls a laptop from the car and takes it to a kiosk, where he opens it. Then the super-villain walks away from the scene. Perhaps the force was too strong with that one?
The video later shows the man on the ground surrounded by police with someone in a Superman costume standing nearby. He was arrested without incident, Borihanh said.
No other information about the suspect or his motive was available, he said. Yoda has not been questioned.

The area around Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood is full of costumed actors who aggressively demand money of people taking snapshots of them. There are arrests now and then for aggressive "panhandling."

At least they are trying to work as crazy as we might see it. It beats sitting on your ass waiting for a check from the giv-ament. :thumbup:
