Authorities in Ohio were on alert Tuesday after a student said a person in clown mask chased him with a knife.
(FOX)- According to WCMH-TV, a 14-year-old boy in Columbus was walking to the bus stop on his way to Columbus North International School at around 6:15 a.m., when a man dressed in all black and wearing a clown mask chased him down the street with a knife.
Mothers in the neighborhood told the station that they’re telling their kids to pay attention and “follow their gut.”
“I thought it was crazy!” Tombi Williams, a mother of two told WCMH-TV. “I did not think it was here, but it goes to show things crazy and stupid can happen everywhere.”
The latest incident involving a clown comes on the heels of a clown trying to lure children in South Carolina into the woods.
