A Mississippi man has been dubbed the 'pothole Robin Hood' after he stole asphalt from the city to fill in more than 100 potholes in his area.
Ron Chane owns a screen-printing business by day in Fondren but by night he and his girlfriend have taken it upon himself to smooth out crumbling roads in the city of Jackson.
Citizens are thrilled at the vigilante's work but the police less so. He is now under police investigation for stealing the asphalt from the city of Jackson and repairing the potholes, which he then signs with the spray-painted message 'citizen fixed.'

Potholes are widespread in all areas of Jackson and experts say they make cracks in the already crumbling streets. The city, which residents joke is like a Six Flags amusement park because it's so bumpy, also has a sinkhole problem.

'It's hard to have a good city without good infrastructure,' Chane told ABC. 'And our city simply does not have the budget.'
