Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Clown sightings are back, and spotted in Ohio for Halloween 2023.

Taking to social media, popular American tabloid, D.A, shared the picture of a clown in Ohio. 

There has been another creepy clown encounter — this time in Columbus, Ohio.

A 14-year-old boy heading to a school bus stop Tuesday morning told police he was chased by a black-clad man armed with a knife — and wearing a clown mask, police said.

“The victim was able to get away from him by throwing a rock at him,” said police spokeswoman Denise Alex-Bouzounis, who added that police are now canvassing the area in search of the suspect and keeping a close eye on the bus stop in north Columbus near where the incident occurred.

“We don’t know whether this was a prank or not, but we are taking it seriously,” she said. During 8th grade lunch at Hudson Middles School, a career tech auto student wearing a clown mask and wig arrived to his program that is located next to the Hudson Middle School parking lot. This scared the children because of all of the news on creepy clowns in Ohio. No student was harmed and the Hudson Schools staff immediately took care of the situation and calmed the 8th graders. Hudson Middle School has already “been in contact with our central office administration, our Student Resource Officer, and the student’s school to help them begin a disciplinary investigation.”

Alex-Bouzounis said they’re aware of the South Carolina reports but said “we’re investigating locally at first.”

Residents in the north Columbus neighborhood said they were rattled by the reported clown attack.
