“A NICE WAY to start the week,” is how an NYPD spokesman described Monday, 26 November to the New York Daily News.

Why?

Because there wasn’t one shooting, stabbing or slashing reported in a city plagued with high murder and crime rates.

The newspaper – quite obviously – attributed the feat to Batman. Sure, what else could it have been?

Unfortunately, there was still some ‘Robin’ going on during the day.
