FORT WORTH, Texas, Sept. 16 (UPI) -- Just call these two "Batman and Robbin'."

Police in Texas said a less-than-heroic Batman accused of robbing a Fort Worth store was caught on camera removing his mask.

Investigators said a man wearing a Batman mask, white gloves and a T-shirt reading "you mad bro" robbed a Verizon Wireless store in Fort Worth last week alongside a man wearing a Dallas Mavericks baseball cap, a long-sleeve white turtleneck and a Pepsi t-shirt.

Police said the men made off with cell phones, tablets and cash before fleeing the store Sept. 7, and the Batman-masked suspect removed his mask in view of a security camera.

The mask removal likely clears billionaire Bruce Wayne of suspicion in the case.
