Creepy clown scaring villagers in Cambodia blown up by landmine

[geovalin]

In what is probably one of the worst ways to go, an unidentified 25-year-old was chased into an active minefield by residents of Samraong, Cambodia after running around the village in a creepy clown mask. According to Times of Cambodia, the man has yet to be identified, but is believed to be a local who spent several years studying abroad in the U.S. and recently returned home for a family visit.

 

The local police captain told the news outlet that a group of witnesses arrived at the police station and reported an “evil spirit” that was roaming the streets, wielding a machete, and “peering into homes” of several residents.” Most of the locals hid from the specter, but some of them charged at the man when they realized that he wasn’t a ghost, but just a dude in a mask.

 

“They didn’t want to hurt him,” said the police captain,” but they wanted to find out who it was and make him apologize to the people that he’d scared.”

Of course, he never got the chance to apologize because they unwittingly chased him straight into a minefield.

 

The villagers tried to warn the man to avoid the active explosives and come back, but he kept running. Their collective horror was realized a few minutes later when they heard an explosion.

A doctor was dispatched to the scene, but that turned out to be pointless as the body was “torn apart” as the man “didn’t stand a chance.”

 

Unfortunately, this man will now forever be known as a cautionary tale as to why you don’t terrorize your neighbors while dressed up as a creepy clown.

Target is doing its part by banning the sale of clown costumes this Halloween season.

This disgusting new "fun wave" will trigger violence very soon.

Tear gas used in Germany.

Waiting for the first "clown" being shot dead in the US.

Hard to avoid those land mines when you're wearing clown shoes.

I suspect the next creepy clown ghost they see will be taken more seriously.
