Spider-Man saves man in wheelchair

Man dressed as Spider-Man helps a man crossing the street in a wheelchair. 

Some heroes actually do come costumed. 

In Jonesboro, Arkansas, a man needed a little help crossing the road. The unidentified citizen, bound in a wheelchair, started crossing the busy intersection when he began to struggle. 

Noticing his persistence, a man dressed in a Spider-Man costume came in out of nowhere to help the man across the street. 

Spider-Man ran behind the man in the wheelchair and gave him a rapid push across the roadway to the other side. Making the whole thing look as simple as a child playing with putty.

The heroic act was caught on camera and Jonesboro Police Department posted video on their Facebook page, adding a big "thank you" to the masked hero for doing the right thing. 

What they're saying:

One comment on the video also noted the man behind the mask, saying, "I am the General Manger of Ultimate Air Trampoline Park and this gentleman is an employee for us," Angie Wilkins Walker said. "We had super hero day at Ultimate air for our toddlers and he had just left. This is not AI or anything planned. He just is a great person and saw somebody struggling that needed help. He just happened to be in a super hero suit."

The police department responded in admiration, saying he put a smile on their faces, giving the local super-citizen his praise.
