"Hero" English teacher stops business man from masturbating on train

TOKYO, Japan -- Gaba English teacher Chris Lake is being hailed as a hero for his actions late Friday night while riding the Ginza subway line.

After leaving the Ginza Gaba school, Chris' prevented a sexual assault in progress as a man in his mid-thirties, whom had continued to rub his erect, non-exposed penis onto the buttocks area of a very impaired woman struggling to stand on the crowded train.

According to witnesses, the man had also put his hand under the woman's skirt without her knowing it. It was at this point when Chris stepped in, grabbed the guy by the collar, and firmly forced him off the train at Nihonbashi station while other commuter looked on. Once, the man was off the train. Chris returned inside the car before a very surprised group of Japanese.

The reaction has been mixed. According to one Japanese person, "It would be wise not to get involved in other's affairs." One Canadian co-worker added, "Chris is so American. He must think he is the world's train police or a Bruce Willis wannabe." Later, Chris' American friend added, "(Expletive) awesome! You should've (expletive) kicked his (expletive) ass, right there, man."

Chris himself tried to play down the attention as much as possible.

"I just did what anyone else would have done when they see a man rubbing his erect penis on someone inebriated.�E

After ejecting the man from the train car, Chris Lake was unable to say anything due to his lack of language ability.

"I wish I could have said something cool, like in the first Batman movie, remember?" Chris then lowered his voice imitating Michael Keaton, "Do me a favor...I want you to tell all of your masturbating chikan friends something."

He paused before finally adding, "Tell them, that I'm coming for them."
