Though they haven't yet ripped limbs off their victims like the clown in Stephen King's "It" there have been a number of assaults by people dressed as evil clowns in several towns in France. Some of the clowns are armed with pistols,knives,baseball bats and in one case an iron bar. Teenagers have been arrested for several of the assaults. In some of the towns experiencing the violence they have imposed bans on anyone dressing as a clown. I am not subject to coulrophobia (fear of clowns) but there is something slightly creepy about them and after this outbreak of clown violence there is most certainly justification for coulrophobia.
