God of Thunder scares off burglar!

23 posts in this topic

EDINBURGH, Scotland, Jan. 1 (UPI) -- A man who dressed as the Norse god Thor for a costume party in Scotland said he returned home and scared off a burglar who had entered his house.

 

Torvald Alexander, 38, a construction firm manager who stands at 6 feet tall, said he ran after the burglar with his red cape and silver-winged helmet still in place, making for an intimidating sight, The Daily Telegraph reported Thursday.

 

"As soon as he saw me his eyes went wide with terror," Alexander said of the burglar. "He looked like he had had a few drinks and decided to do a late night break in, but he hadn't counted on the God of Thunder living here."

 

"I had just got back from a fancy dress New Year's party and because I have a Norwegian name I decided to go as Thor," he said.

 

Alexander said the burglar did not have time to steal anything from the house and fled from a ground floor window without his shoes. He said the shoes will be turned over to police to help them attempt to identify a suspect.

 

 

Unfortunately there were no pictures in the article. lol

I forgot about that guy as when they were talking about Thor had appeared in the old Hulk series and I went to look up the episode, all sorts of information came up about "Thor the Rocker." Is there a way to pay the different search engines to clear out their historic cache and references to that super performer?
