BARNEGAT —A ninja sighting in the woods near the Robert L. Horbelt Elementary School prompted a brief lockdown of the township's public schools before authorities realized the suspect in question was actually a camp counselor heading toward a costume party.
:ninja:
Shortly after 9 a.m. Wednesday, police received a call from a librarian at the local Ocean County Library branch on Burr Street reporting that a man dressed as a ninja, carrying a large sword, was running through the woods, Lt. Patrick Shaffery said. Police than initiated a lock-down of the five schools as a precaution, police said.
:ninja:
The lock-down — which restricts movement in and out of school buildings — was lifted by 9:30 a.m. after police learned the man in question was actually a camp counselor on his way to a costume-themed day at the Russell O. Brackman Middle School. The counselor, who was wearing a black karate gi and carrying a plastic sword, was running late and decided to take a shortcut through the woods, Shaffery said.

they had a lockdown because of a ninja?

is this feudal japan? thats stupid!

but awesome.
 
If you see someone in all black in a mask running around the woods near a school, that's a source of concern. It's not like this woman should obviously know it's costume day and the ninja needs to take a shortcut.
 
i can't believe that the school district thought that a ninja was going to break into the schools and kill the students. what ******s.:whatever:
 
Ya, Lol'ing at this. Shutting down schools....because of a ninja...a NINJA!!! Bwahahaha.....

Watch out he'll take us all out with shuirkens and kurenai. He can perform ancient hand sign techniques allowing him to breath fire!!!

Seriously, I get the concern, strange guy + sword in a post Collumbine and various other school shooting era. But still....it's a councilor dressed as a ninja carrying a plastic sword. Still tho, awesome :).
 
So let me get this straight...



The police locked down the schools because the librarian spotted a ninja running through the woods. IN. JERSEY.
 
Seriously though, it's a school, they're going to be more safe than sorry. It's not like they knew who it was, someone (possibly in a mask or something) was in the woods acting strangely near a school with what looked like a weapon, they're going to call the cops. The police then checked it out, found out what happened, and everyone went on their merry way. What is so dumb about this? It's kind of a funny misunderstanding, but how is anyone involved in this "******ed"?
 
you could get arrested for dressing up as a ninja with a sword??
 
here miht be a local ordanace against wearing a mask maybe he shouldn't have put it on till he reached his party
 
It may be a costume...but you can't be a ninja and get caught. That's just not right.
 
Yep. Sounds like New Jersey to me. Carry on!
