Heroes come in all shapes and sizes and levels of strange.
A bearded man sporting a leather jacket and a sporting a ceremonial Native American calling himself Rambo Richardson subdued an armed teen who opened fire on a commuter train in Oregon.
A teenager was taken into custody after he allegedly fired a gun on a MAX train Tuesday night, according to police.
Reports of gunfire on the MAX train at the 102nd Avenue Transit Station on E Burnside Street came in around 8:30 p.m. Portland Police Bureau said.
A Good Samaritan was holding the suspect down when officers arrived. He was reportedly taken into custody without incident.
Investigators believe he fired 1 or 2 shots after being confronted by an adult he knew.
The shooting suspect had been accused of burglary by an adult who knew him when he pulled out a (illegally acquired and possessed) handgun and opened fire. He did not apparently hit his target or any bystanders before being taken down by our feather-and-leather-clad hero.
Keep it weird, Portland.
