A Teenager Has Been Stabbed By A Clown In Sweden

This clown craze seems to be going nowhere. In fact, rather than slowing down it seems to be spreading.

As well as happening across the US, UK and Australia, they've also popped up in Sweden. And not content with jumping out from behind bushes and scaring kids on the way to school, the clowns in Sweden are stabbing people.

Police in Varberg, Sweden, have confirmed reports that a teenager was stabbed in the shoulder by a clown while he was smoking a cigarette in the street.

He was treated for minor injuries and will thankfully make a full recovery.

Ulla Brehm, a spokesperson from Varberg police, told the Sun: "We do not know what prompted this. It was not a robbery, and I do not know if they had fought before."

Anders Ygeman, the Swedish Interior Minister, said: "We don't want to see a situation where a person gets into real trouble because someone, perhaps half joking, puts on a clown mask."

It's got lot to answer for, this clown craze, as well as people scaring kids, stabbing teenagers and it's even affecting our porn choices.

I think it's time we all knocked this clown stuff on the head now and went back to be being adults.
