UNMASKED? Romano (Photo: Mike Oates)
Radar has learned that NYPD detectives recently questioned New York Post photographer Ron Romano of Staten Island in connection with the Ninja burglaries which have besieged that tropical paradise this year (and caught the attention of media far from the home of the Wu Tang Clan).
Romano is laughing about it now, but the rest of the Staten Island press corps promise to never let him live it down, he says. "You know how they've never caught me?" Romano has been joking to friends. "I walk the electric high lines on my way out of my victims' houses, and the cops never bother to look up!" With a more serious tone, he adds, "They're grasping at straws."
