Child Uses Selfie Stick to Beat Clown That Tried to Grab Him From Bushes
WHDH ^ | OCTOBER 18, 2017

A person dressed as a clown was beaten with a selfie stick by a child riding a bicycle in Voulsia County.

According to Fox 13, the victim told the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office someone dressed as a clown jumped out from behind bushes and tried to grab him.

The 11-year-old victim, riding a bicycle, then began to beat the clown with a selfie stick.

The victim said the clown, standing 5 feet 9 inches and 230 pounds, was wearing blue hair, a rainbow-painted face, red foam nose, black boots and pants and a green, long-sleeved shirt.

The clown began chasing the 11-year-old after the beating before tripping and falling to the ground.

The sheriff’s office posted a warning to Facebook, Tuesday, that reads: “Warning to evil clowns and anyone considering creepy clown activity: We will not be there to save you if your intended target defends himself or herself, and you may face other penalties as well.”

There’s a Marci Rubio/Jeb Bush primary joke in there somewhere.

The kid while beating the clown with the stick was caught saying “does it float? Does it?”

Glad the sheriff got some guffaws in over a creep in a mask trying to abduct an 11 year old kid.

Wait, wait: don't tell me! The clown's last name is Kennedy?

"... before tripping ..."

Makes sense. It must have been those big red shoes. I bet he broke a toe. Just like another clown I have in mind.

I might call BS on this. An 11-year-old would come up with
“5 feet 9 inches and 230 pounds”? Seems a bit specific for someone not even a teenager yet.

“The clown began chasing the 11-year-old after the beating before tripping and falling to the ground.”

Never get in a foot chase wearing clown shoes (or diving flippers).

Probably the best use for a selfie stick ever.

I wish we had a video of this. It would be Mel Brooks hilarious.
