West Yorkshire Police
Perhaps it's time to rename West Yorkshire as Adam West Yorkshire, seeing as how the UK city appears to be home to a paunchy caped crusader who recently turned in a handler of stolen goods to the police.
The police would like to know his identity, but the woman who thinks she sold the costume to that mysterious masked man is keeping his true name (and credit card number) a secret.
I'd suggest investigating every expensive mansion house that looks as though it could house a cave underneath - but they're kind of a dime a dozen in England, right?
UPDATE: And...he's busted. See comments thread below.

FYI - West Yorkshire is not a city, it's a county. Bradford was the city where it happened. It's a bit like me calling Alabama a city, although on a MUCH smaller scale. But it does kinda spoil the Adam West gag, sorry.
@septimuswigley Yeah, man, Yorkshire's tourism board won World's Leading Marketing Campaign at the World Travel Awards last year. I'd hate to see the losers when the winner's advertising is so effective people think West Yorkshire is a city.

@skrag2112 As seen here, in a news report as well, to help confirm this. Dude unmasks & everything.
So alas, it was more of a joke than anything else. So it looks like Brazilian Batman & Slovakian Batman will still be searching for new members to create a real-life Batman Incorporated...

@SlyDante777 @skrag2112 And with Michigan's Batman arrested Brazilian and Slovakian Batmans (Batmen?) will have to be a smaller company. Something like two Batmen and a truck.
