Great headline!

Foxnews.com ran this story with the headline "The Force is strong with this one..."

An 11-year-old boy demonstrated The Force when he defended his mom by hitting an attacker with a toy lightsaber.

The man, in his 30s, fled after being confronted by the youngster outside a bakery in Swardeston, near Norwich, England.

Police said the boy hit the man with his toy after the man had punched and verbally abused his mother as she approached her car.

Officers are appealing for witnesses to the Dec. 22 attack.

Allan Jennings of the Norfolk Police said: "The incident caused quite a commotion and it is unlikely it would have gone unnoticed."

The attacker's lucky -- had he succeeded in his assault the lad might have slaughtered an entire camp of Sand People, and gone on to become a Dark Lord of the Sith. I suspect we'll be watching the lad's career with great interest...

Speaking of dark lords, I found this photo pretty funny. Considering he just endorsed John McCain for Emperor, er, President, the question becomes: which one is the master, and which the apprentice?
