Suspect's Superman Shirt Was His Kryptonite: Cops

Call him the "Man Of Steal."
Delaware County Jail

UPPER DARBY, Pa. (AP) — Police in the Philadelphia suburbs say the Man of Steal was undone by his Superman T-shirt.

The Philadelphia Daily News (http://bit.ly/1j2FlJO ) reports 18-year-old Kyree Henneghan was charged with two Upper Darby burglaries that police linked him to because of the shirt.

Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood says a man wearing a T-shirt with the Superman shield broke into one home on Sept. 24 and a second on Tuesday. In that heist, the homeowner walked in and Henneghan bolted with a laptop computer.

Henneghen made a not-so-speedy getaway on his BMX bicycle and police found him a short time later — still wearing the Superman shirt — trying to sell the computer to men in a car.

Online court records don't list a defense attorney. Henneghan is in the Delaware County jail.
