That entire report is one of the best unintentionally funny things I've ever read. whoever wrote should win a medal, and then be sacked and never asked to write any news reports ever again.

"As he smashed through the door of a farmhouse, a feisty old pensioner was waiting for him.
The old man came down the stairs but tripped on the last step letting off his rifle".

It would have been funnier if he was inspired by Monkey Magic. At least he fights like a ninja.
