Clowns jumping out in Peckham Rye Park today at school leave time.

[Zany05]

The police have been alerted that Harris School Girls were visibly shocked and scared after being jumped out on by pranksters dressed as clowns in Peckham Rye Park today.

They (clowns) entered the infant playground also.

Rumours are going around schools in SE23 also that the clowns will be visiting the schools tomorrow or Friday with knives.

If you're faced with a group of clowns, go for the juggler.

Defend yourself by carrying buckets of sawdust

They were seen trying to drive off in a car with wobbly wheels and very loose doors.

These are obvs the delinquent children of grown up clowns

It's a worrying trend, running off from the circus to join the real world

Isn't it rich...?

Horrible to visit an infant school. Some children are terrified of clowns. Idiotic thing to do.

Let's hope the Media circus doesn't descend upon the neighbourhood.

To busy with the chainsaw wielding clown - who turned out to be a rather stupid fresher.

Vigilante Clown hunters the latest thing - I just laugh in their ugly faces or shout at them (and people don't like that as I'm loud)

there's an incident where one clown was severely beaten for trying to scare someone.

Beaten green and orange, so I heard.

I can think of a few clowns on this forum, but they don't scare me.

A quick google shows at least four such incidents. I don't like saying anyone 'deserves' to be beaten up, but... hardly surprising, is it?

Maybe a Clown is the real life equivalent of an Internet Troll.

Maybe a clown is the real life version of a cyber goading expert?
