The Cape Coral Masked Ninja has been causing quite the stir. Look out Batman, there’s a new masked villain in town! Residents are on the lookout after a ninja was caught on camera breaking into at least three cars over the weekend! It looks like this ninja has taken his love for martial arts a little too far. He decided to put his stealthy skills to the test and use them for evil doing.

According to NBC2, one unlucky homeowner had just turned on his brand new Ring security camera thankfully. Only to find out a few hours later that his driveway was being prowled by the ninja. It’s like the universe has a twisted sense of humor, doesn’t it?

The ninja wasted no time and quickly made his way around the neighborhood, opening car doors left and right like it was his job. What was he looking for, you might ask? Well, we’re not sure either. Maybe he was on a mission to find the ultimate shuriken or perhaps he was searching for some ancient Katana Blade. Either way, the ninja didn’t seem to have much luck, as no valuable items were stolen from either situation.

Now, we don’t condone breaking into cars, but you have to admit, the Cape Coral Masked Ninja has some serious skills. He wasn’t caught. Yet. We can’t help but wonder where he learned all those fancy moves. Maybe he’s a former ninja warrior, or maybe he’s just been watching too many action movies. Regardless, we have to give him some credit for his dedication to his craft.

So, if you’re a resident of the SE 40th St neighborhood, be on the lookout for the masked ninja.
