[dc door: news update]
[The Friday morning news runs a story about a mugging gone wrong down in Crime Alley. Such attacks are hardly unexpected, particularly in that part of town, so it doesn't make major play among the headlines. The only notable detail is that the assault was stopped in a particularly brutal way. Both of the men were known criminals. One suffered a badly sliced-open hand which he is expected to lose, and the other was killed, his neck broken after being thrown into a brick wall with incredible force. The surviving victim has admitted the pair intended to assault a woman on her own for her purse, though there was no purse found at the scene, so the veracity of this has been questioned. Witnesses recall seeing an individual who matches descriptions of well-known murderous vigilante the Red Hood. A blonde girl was also spotted at the scene, with some witnesses even stating she was the one responsible for killing the man who died. She left with the Hood, but she has yet to be identified. As usual, anyone with information is being asked to step forward.]
