Swords are for heroes...or samurais and dragon slayers

I can't even begin to talk about the ridiculousness of this story:

A man, believing to hear a woman crying for help during rape, enters the neighbor's apartment. The man had no telephone so he could not call for police, so he decided to take matters into his own hands. He kicked down the door, only to find that the cries for help were actually coming from a pornographic movie.

Weirdest thing of all...the almost hero, entered the apartment with a sword. A SWORD.

Kind of weirder, when the police came to arrest the would be hero (criminal trespass while using a dangerous weapon, criminal damage to property while using a dangerous weapon and disorderly conduct while using a dangerous weapon) the porn watching man showed the police the spot in the movie he believed caused the misunderstanding. Boy, I hope he made some popcorn for his guests.

At least, from what I've read, that neighbors (even the one that got, um, interrupted) are glad that someone in the area cares enough to take action when they believe someone is in trouble. True but...a sword?
