The older a person gets, the more terrified they are of clowns. While I can’t quantify that as fact, it’s certainly a fact in my book. Or maybe it’s because ever since I saw the movie Killer Klowns from Outer Space I’ve been deathly afraid of these guys. If you could a fear of clowns with a freaky looking clown lurking quietly and menacingly on a street corner, then consider me in real life horror movie territory. Frankly I would hide under the covers if I knew this was going on in my town.
The finer details of this story remain unclear, but whatever is going down has shaken up a community and a college campus. The Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha, Wisconsin, has seen quite a few reported sightings of a clown, who usually dresses in an orange jumpsuit. The clown stands on street corners and in front of dilapidated structures. Needless to say, the town and its residents are freaking out. P.S. this has been going on for an entire week.
Reporter Nick Bohr of WISN 12 ABC in Milwaukee has been on the case since weird stuff hit the airwaves.

Another clown has surfaced in Waukesha, and this one dresses as a “Joker-type” incarnation. This clown waves to people, and he was sighted at a time when the first clown’s alibi placed him at home with family.

Unfortunately there are no signs of this clown business slowing down. People are losing their minds on Twitter in a “ha ha” way, but you can tell there’s a real fear here.
For anyone who's in Waukesha does anybody notice the clown in a jumpsuit who stands and stares on Main street everyday for the past week
