For the second time in less than six months, hundreds of inmates brawled at the Arizona State Prison Complex in Tucson.

The 400-inmate fight on Sunday -- which landed 17 inmates in the hospital -- appears to have been race-related, as did a 200-inmate fight that occurred in September.

The Light Rail ninja.

Despite the initial report, Phoenix police say the incident involving a guy with a Samurai sword on the Metro Light Rail was reported, and it's under investigation.

Phoenix police Sergeant Steve Martos says the incident appears to have occurred around 2 a.m. on October 13, which wasn't really clear based on the description from the person who uploaded the video to YouTube.
