Jones, a self-proclaimed Seattle superhero by night, says he has been
fired from his day job teaching autistic children. Jones received a
letter dismissing him from his job with the Washington state Department
of Social and Health Services because of his crime-fighting actions at
night. “It basically just said that effectively immediately, I was no
longer able to work with disabled or autistic children,” Jones said.
“The reason is because I was put on a list of people who interject
themselves into dangerous situations and some government agency put me
on that list.” The letter came after Jones was arrested for assault in
October for using pepper spray on a crowd to break up a fight. No
charges were filed against Jones in the incident. The masked superhero
said he plans to keep the streets safe during the day until he finds a
new job.
