Police in Italy finally captured a Russian ninja that has been breaking into North Italy farms. From the Beeb:
But on Monday night the "ninja" was outwitted.

As he smashed through the door of a farmhouse, a feisty old pensioner was waiting for him.

The old man came down the stairs but tripped on the last step letting off his rifle.

Startled, the "ninja" made his escape, hopping onto a bicycle and racing off into the nearby cornfields - followed by police who were quickly on the scene.

You'd expect that the farmer would look away for half a second instinctively in response to a noise and that the ninja would just kind of disappear, leaving the farmer searching about in amazement as the ninja quietly crawls across the ceiling to the window. But jumping onto the old guy's Huffy and riding off into the darkness? Not very ninja-esque.

You have too high expectations of ninjas. We can't do those things.
