SEATTLE (AP) — Seattle’s self-proclaimed superhero known as Phoenix Jones was arrested early Sunday and accused of assaulting several people with pepper spray.
Police say they were attacked after leaving a nightclub.
Officers arrest the 23-year-old. He was released on bond and is due to be arraigned Thursday.
The seattlepi.com reports (http://bit.ly/oJhWuS ) the man who wears a black and yellow costume was trying to break up a fight. Video shot by a friend shows he used the spray after he was attacked.
Jones and supporters have been conducting late night patrols since last year in Seattle.
