Dad in Clown Mask Follows School Bus, Sends Kids into a Panic
In a bizarre turn of events in Auburn, Massachusetts, a father decided to don a clown mask and follow his son’s school bus, leaving the children on board utterly terrified. With 2016 already feeling like a horror movie thanks to the relentless political chaos, the emergence of creepy clowns seemed to take things to a whole new level.
This summer, reports of clowns attempting to lure kids into the woods popped up—most notably in a South Carolina apartment complex—while kids in New York and New Jersey found themselves being pursued by individuals in clown costumes. One frightened 10-year-old was even discovered hiding between two houses. You’d think that any sane adult, especially a parent, would see these alarming reports and think, “Hmm, maybe I shouldn’t recreate that.” But not this dad, who thought it would be a real knee-slapper to scare his son and his friends.
The local police were alerted by concerned parents and took to Facebook to address the “clown caper.” They confirmed that the man in question was indeed a parent of one of the students on the bus. According to the police, he “followed several middle school students from their bus and bus stop,” causing sheer panic among the children, who even had to hide underneath a nearby deck to escape his antics.
The situation had all the makings of a horror flick, and thankfully, law enforcement stepped in before it escalated further. While the authorities haven’t disclosed the clown dad’s name, they did announce charges of disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace. If we had to wager, his wife is probably contemplating her own version of a horror story right about now.
The police also expressed hope that this incident would serve as a lesson for others, stressing that following children—regardless of attire—is a really bad idea, and doing so in a clown mask just adds a cherry on top of the outrageousness.
