BARNEGAT, N.J. – It’s the case of the nonexistent ninja. Public schools in Barnegat were locked down briefly after someone reported seeing a ninja running through the woods behind an elementary school.
Turns out the ninja was actually a camp counselor dressed in black karate garb and carrying a plastic sword.
Police tell the Asbury Park Press the man was late to a costume-themed day at a nearby middle school.

of course it was just a camp counselor. if it was a real ninja, he wouldn’t have been seen at all…
That’s freakin’ hysterical. I can just imagine being a teacher telling the students why the school was locked down. “Kids, now, don’t be afraid….but apparently there’s a ninja on the loose.”
Sounds like a SNL skit waiting to be done…
