Sensei Kaylan Soto, middle, and his students came to the rescue of a German exchange student.
A group of would-be muggers in a Sydney, Australia, met their match Tuesday night in the form of black-clad ninjas.
The three stalked and attacked a German exchange student, 27, in a dimly lit alley that fortunately for the victim ran behind the Ninja Senshi Ryu warrior school, according to an Australian Broadcasting Corp. report.
Ninja student Nathan Smith was standing in the shadows outside the dojo when the attackers set upon the victim and quickly called for help from his classmates inside, according to a report in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Sensei Kaylan Soto and three other students in full ninja gear quickly responded.
"We looked around to see what was happening and there were three blokes on this guy just kicking him and punching him in the head," he told the ABC.
"We started running towards them and they took off. They would have seen five of us in ninja gear ... all in black with our belts on, running toward them.”
The ninjas gave chase but could not catch the assailants.
Police told the ABC they arrested two male suspects, ages 16 and 20, and are looking for a third. Their intended victim suffered only minor injuries.
Ninja Steve Ashley told the Herald the assailants must be lamenting their luck.
"It was probably the worst place in Sydney where they could have taken him,” he said.
Those ninjas should have PUT THE HAMMER DOWN! Honestly, coolest story I've read all year
more like the best story ever lol up untill the moment that i was created at least haha
Goes to show you the caliber of the assailants - it takes three of them to be 'tough guy' and take on a lone victim. But they knew their status and ran when they saw the ninja students. the realization set in that they are only a bunch of punks who couldn't saurvive on their own - idiots!
but there were 5 "ninjas"
Great Story, it is just that a story with a hint of news fused to create a buzz.
Apparently reporters with no knowledge and ABSOLUTELY nothing to write about.....
Apparently you are incapable of incorporating any type of humor into your life. Grow a funny bone will you?
So many nija experts, so few ninjas. Five bowling students would have scared off three muggers; and apparently the chance to chase them down.
its ninja not nija go back to school and learn something for once
I pity the students in your English class, Mr. Kirk. How can they hope to learn when their teacher hasn't figured out capitalization or punctuation yet?
blowing students would have had the balls to chase them down.
wonderful, martial artists everywhere unite, open up a can of whop ass on muggers
it is stomp the bad guy week, a national week long holiday of butt kicking
Aw, C'mon, they couldn't get them with some throwing stars?
Would've caught them if they were real ninjas. Aren't ninjas supposed to ambush, not charge head-on?
Why didn't they use their chinese stars to take down the guys running away?
Apparently the ninjas are out of shape since they couldnt catch the attackers
If they had been Pirates or better yet Ice Pirates they would have destroyed the muggers.
What would Chuck Norris had done?
If Chuck Norris had been around, the muggers would have beat each other unconscious rather than face him in a fight.
This is a non-story. These so called ninjas didn't do anything to the muggers
Bow to your Sensei! BOW TO YOUR SENSEI!
I eat ninjas for breakfast
