A group of teenage girls were left terrified when they came across a knife wielding clown in Old Town on Monday night and a cyclist had a clown jump out in front of him in Golden Jubilee Way last week.

A group spokesperson said, “We are trying to make people aware of the areas that have had clowns spotted so people know what areas to stay safe.”
