Teen thwarts PS3 theft with samurai sword

In what has to be the most bizarre botched PS3 robbery to date, a teenager in Hialeah, FL fended off a burglar with a samurai sword. Last week, Damian Fernandez and his 15-year-old sister Deanne were home alone when the burglars knocked and then forced their entry into the house. While sis hid in a closet, Damian decided to take matters into his own hands. After the burglars ransacked their parents bedroom and were confiscating the empty PS3 box from Deanne's bedroom, Damian struck one of the burglars "in the chest" and proceeded to chase him down the street, sword poised to strike. Hmmm ... so the PS3 was in her room and yet, he chased the burglars down the street with a sword? Wow. That's once crazy, nice big brother.

Come to think of it, unless you're in the Hewitt household or perhaps inside a novelty shop in L.A., samurai swords that are easily accessible are often a rarity inside homes where kids are left without adult supervision. Unfortunately for these burglars, they knocked on such a house an nearly met an untimely demise, courtesy of Samurai Jack Damian Fernandez. Anyone else preparing to run to a pawn shop for one of these bad boys? We know, it's crazy to think something like this could happen again ... but you never know.
