BARNEGAT — A report of a ninja sighting in the woods near the Robert L. Horbelt elementary School prompted a brief lockdown of the township's public schools before
authorities realized the suspect in question was actually a camp counselor heading toward a costume party.

Shortly after 9 a.m., police received a call from a librarian at the local Ocean
County Library branch on Burr Street reporting that a man dressed as a ninja, carrying a large sword, was running through the woods, Lt. Patrick Shaffery said. Police than initiated a lock-down of the five schools as a precaution, police said.

The lock-down — which restricts movement in and out of school buildings — was lifted by 9:30 a.m. after police learned the man in question was actually a camp counselor on his way to a costume-themed day at the Russell O. Brackman Middle School. The counselor, who was wearing a black karate gi and carrying a plastic sword, was running late and decided to take a short cut through the woods, Shaffery said.

WHat worries me is the authorities' oversight. We all know that where there's ninjas, there's also their archnemesis....

So..........

They have a contingency plan for ninjas?? Don't they realize that if it were a real Ninja, they never would have seen him until he was slitting their throats?? That should have been a dead giveaway right there!

Can you guys imagine being one of the sane ones on the staff as the authorities decide to lock down the school? I would be so exasperated and embarrased as I sip my spiked morning coffee in the staff room.

I thought this happened in Staten Island New York, where there is a man called the Staten Island Ninja. He robs houses for a living.
