Superhero teens lure alleged sex predators

November 18th, 2011

Call it superhero justice, but a Chilliwack masked avenger has started exposing men seeking dates with underage girls, the Vancouver Province reports.

A man dressed in a Batman costume has been confronting men alleged to have arranged a meeting with an under youth.

Over the past three weeks, three videos have been posted to YouTube showing the confrontations, with all videos filmed in Chilliwack.

The videos follow a pattern established by the discontinued and controversial American television series To Catch A Predator.

Video stills show transcripts of what appears to be a chat between a person posing as a 15-year-old girl and an older man. A meeting is arranged, at which point a man is confronted.
