Mr Soto with his ninja trainees saved Sydney mugging
victim.
Three muggers in Australia got the fright of their
lives when their attack was interrupted by five black-clad ninja
warriors.
The thieves were assaulting a German medical exchange student in
Sydney, but the alleyway where they struck was next to a school for
ninja warriors.
One of the pupils raised the alarm after noticing the
attack.
Police say they have arrested two men and charged them with
robbery, and are still looking for a third suspect.
"We just ran outside and started running at them, yelling and
everything," said ninja master Kaylan Soto who instructed his
students to take action.
"These guys have turned around and seen five ninjas in black
ninja uniforms running towards them. They just bolted."
The victim suffered minor injuries, and the men stole his mobile
phone and iPod, according to police.
Mr Soto said the man could have escaped the assault with some
training in ninjitsu - a Japanese martial art. As for the
attackers, "They just picked the wrong spot," he added.
