SEATTLE, Wash. (Sinclair Broadcast Group) — Seattle police have arrested a man who they say threw a batarang at officers.
Police were called to a Capitol Hill bar on Monday night after an employee was threatened by a man carrying an “improvised spear” consisting of a knife on a metal pole.

Officers chased the suspect, who threw “a sharp, Batman-style throwing star” at a police SUV, according to a press release. Police have posted photos of the unusual weapon, which embedded in the lower front of the vehicle.
Seattle police did not immediately release the name of the 23-year-old suspect, but they confirmed on Twitter that he is not Batman. He was booked into King County Jail on a felony assault charge and may also face weapons and obstruction charges.
