The robber was holding a gun to 5-year-old Mary Long's head when a 3-foot-tall Mighty Morphin Power Ranger leapt into the room.

"Get away from my family," Stevie Long, 4, shouted, punctuating his screams with swipes of his plastic sword and hearty "yah, yahs."..

..."During the robbery, a ... boy snuck into his bedroom, dressed himself in a Power Ranger costume and armed himself with a plastic sword," according to a police news release. "The child then exited his room and approached the armed suspect, in an attempt to protect his family."

That's one brave little dude.

Like the aunt said though, the kid will need to learn to seperate fantasy from reality. I understand he is still young, but it really would have really sucked if the scumbag robber shot the kid instead of just leaving like he did.
