Link Holy hooligans! Phony 'Joker' arrested in Michigan Tuesday July 29 7:47 AM ET Police in Michigan have arrested a man who they say tried to steal posters and other items related to the new Batman movie from a cinema lobby while dressed up as the Joker. Detective Mike Mohney said Monday 20-year-old Spencer Taylor of Three Rivers has been booked for investigation of larceny and malicious destruction of property. Taylor is scheduled to be arraigned Aug. 5 in St. Joseph County District Court. ADVERTISEMENT There is no telephone listing under his name in the Three Rivers area. Mohney says officers who were dispatched early Sunday to the theater arrived to find employees restraining a man wearing a purple suit, a green wig and face paint in the style of Batman's nemesis in "The Dark Knight" Wow, I wonder if anyone saw this coming a mile away! I guess he thought people would think he was dressing up for the movie. It doesn't get much sadder. Pugs
The dude looks more like Cillian Murphy (the scarecrow) than he does the joker... He should have gone with a potato sack over his head!
