Mexico's 'Batman' Becomes a Local Hero, Tying Up Motorcycle Thieves to Utility Poles

Is he called 'Batman' because he wears a mask and costume?

If people think this is more effective than official anti-theft measures, that's a bit ironic.

There's been more and more articles about motorcycle anti-theft measures in various countries, to the point vigilante stories like this become news.

Curious for a follow-up on how many cases of this kind of vigilante action have actually been confirmed.

He's being treated like a hero, but legally I still think this is a pretty gray area.

Being treated as a hero of the city while staying anonymous is a fun story, almost like an urban legend.
