You can't make this schit up.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

An apartment complex in South Carolina is urging residents to watch their children after receiving multiple reports of a person dressed as a clown trying to lure children into the woods, according to media reports.

Residents of the Fleetwood Manor Apartments in Greenville, S.C., received letters from property management last week encouraging them to abide by the apartment’s 10 p.m. curfew, and not to let their children walk alone at night, WHNS-TV reported.

The apartment said there have been “a lot of complaints to the office regarding a clown or a person dressed in clown clothing taking children or trying to lure children into the woods,” WHNS-TV reported.

The apartment complex noted that the Greenville County Sheriff’s Department is aware of the situation and has been driving around the property daily.

Clowns have always given me the creeps but this is one I'd be happy to follow into the woods...

....With a shovel. And rope. And fence pliers. And pruning loppers.
Like this one.

About 15 or 20 years ago the small town I live in had somebody dressed in a bunny costume running around neighborhoods one or two mornings before school following grade school kids. Always timed it so that most guys had already left for work, so nobody chased him down. Was always gone by the time the cops showed up.

Heck, on Monday we had somebody in a van try to talk a 10 year old girl into getting into their van on the way to school.

Set code words with your kids and practice it. There's a lot of people out there who shouldn't be wasting our air.

I wonder if it's a real clown or just someone dressed up like one.

Clowns are a bit creepy and spooky at the circus. On the street, huge red flag. Think John Wayne Gacy. Bust his azz.

I'm not getting this whole story.

Clowns (that's plural) trying to lure kids into the woods in SC and now Winston Salem NC.

The cops haven't seen 'em/can't find 'em.

About 98% of people over the age of about 3 have a cellphone but nobody has a picture....

WTF ?

I never liked a clown when I was a kid. They gave me the creeps. I can't stand a clown.

my simplified response is that those clowns had better be wearing a ton of insect repellent if they're going to be walking in the SC and surrounding State's woods. ya know, there's chiggers, fleas, mosquitoes, and ticks out there.

to be in the woods is to be unprotected, unless prepared for the hazards.

On top of that deer season has started in SC and there are clown haters in the woods with weapons who will pretty much shoot at whatever moves. Especially, predator clowns.

Ain't no repellent for that.
