A man dressed as Batman chased a suspected handbag thief through Norwich before scaling a high wall to recover the stolen bag during a bizarre night out on Saturday, 19 September. Sonni Mason, 25, was attending a friend's fancy-dress party when he witnessed a handbag being snatched after an argument in a nightclub queue.
Mason was not alone. Several other partygoers dressed as comic-book characters, including Mister Fantastic from the Fantastic Four and Poison Ivy from the Batman franchise, joined him in the pursuit.
