Wrong Clown

Homeowner reports knife-wielding clown. Police investigate and indeed find a clown, but it was the wrong clown. Police arrest homeowner on weapons and narcotics charges:

Deputies did discover a man with a clown mask hiding in some bushes a few blocks away from where the warning shots were fired — a sighting “unusual for that time of morning,” Myers said.

However, “the homeowner didn’t identify this clown as the correct clown,” Myers said. “His guy had a full clown costume and a mask, and the clown he saw was taller.”
