'Spiderman' arrests alleged thief in Australia

A comic store owner dressed as Spiderman has become a real hero after he arrested an alleged thief.

Michael Baulderstone, 45, was dressed as Spiderman as part of an open day at Comic Centre in Adelaide, Australia.

He confronted the man when he claimed to have spotted him taking an X-Men omnibus.

CCTV shows Mr Baulderstone talking to the man before stopping him and confiscating the book.

A group of people dressed as Jedi knights also reportedly blocked the exit so the alleged robber could not escape.
