Creepy clowns carrying firearms, knives spook California city

A bunch of copycat teens have been taking their clown scare pranks too far in c, CA where some other kids are being chased by the machete, bat, and even gun-wielding funny-makers. The police have put the town on high alert and have promised that arrests will be made because they absolutely want the shenanigans, that have the potential to become dangerous, stopped immediately.

The original clown that inspired the copycats, began to make appearances on social media this month, was Wasco. He is actually part of a husband-and-wife team's yearlong photography project, which was also inspired by a similar project in the U.K.
