A redacted social media report and the USAS themselves confirm that a sword-wielding person dressed in the 'garb' of a ninja attacked some US soldiers at Inyokern Airport, an airfield in the Mojave Desert north of Los Angeles.
"The person in ninja garb began to slash at (the soldier), striking his phone and his knee and leg,"the record states.
The staff sergeant took off running across the parking lot to escape the attacker, and then he jumped a fence and entered the administrative building, where he and the captain locked doors and called 911.
Meanwhile, the man dressed as a ninja was "kicking and punching doors and windows" before leaving to grab a large block of asphalt, which he heaved through the window of the administration building.
The captain was struck by the chunk of asphalt, said the document on social media.
Thefirst assistance call was recorded about 1:20 a.m., the Ridgecrest Police Department log shows. A man "with a sword" was in a parking lot, and there was at least one victim, the log states.
About 30 minutes later came a second call via 911: "26 spec op military members doing training at the airport," the log states. "Hunkered down in a hangar wondering where help is."
The ninja fled and was arrested elsewhere, according tothe document shared on social media.
