CANADA: One brave law enforcement officer decided to force the Caped Superhero to stop and park his Batmobile by the side of the road.

But what was his crime?

He hadn’t actually committed one – he’s Batman, for starters.

His real name is Stephen Lawrence and he is a professional Batman impersonator who has built and designed his own Batmobile and an extremely convincing costume.

He tours around Comic-Con events and visits sick children dressed as the popular superhero.

He was driving along dressed as Batman in a realistic Batmobile while a load of people kept taking pictures of him on the way. Well, who wouldn’t?

He said;

“I noticed that I was being tailed by a couple of cameras – I can tell when there are recordings happening of me driving – so I noticed at a stop light that a vehicle…was an OPP cruiser [police car].

“I took advantage of this. I pulled up beside the cruiser in the left turn lane and asked the officer to give me a hand with the cameras behind me. The officer said yes they can.”

The policewoman then escorted Batman as he drove, only to put her lights and siren on again in order to pull him over.

Lawrence continues:

“I jumped out and asked if everything was OK and the officer said, ‘I would like to not miss my opportunity and get a photograph with you’.”

The officer later took to Facebook to post a picture captioning it

“What a nice young man Batman is! He was driving his Batmobile – and what an awesome car it is.

“It was very interesting to speak to this man, but more importantly- Batman was actually driving under 80 km/h in a posted 80 km/h zone for everyone’s safety. It looks like a pretty quick car, but he was driving sensibly.

“I just had to take that opportunity to stop him, and say thank you on behalf of all of us in Norfolk County.”
