Man Shoots at Harmless Woman; Doesn’t Know What Clowns Look Like

Scary Afghan Blanket - BEWARE!
Scary Afghan Blanket – BEWARE!

So, it looks like this Clown Surge (what a name!) is getting even more out of hand. On the 3rd, it was reported that a man came out of his house and shot at a woman walking her dog because he thought she was a clown, but she wasn’t. not only did he shoot at her, but he did so with an AR-15 assault rifle. Clearly, she and her dog were extremely generous.

According to the Lexington Herald Leader, the man’s wife came in frightened because she thought she saw a clown. The man grabbed his gun and went outside to investigate and when the not-a-clown-harmless-woman just stood there instead of reacting to him in the way he expected, he decided to fire a warning shot while his wife called the police.

Wow, guys, really? A lady in an afgan. Unless I am wrong, that means she was wrapped in a blanket waiting for her dog to poo. Such a crime!
