A town in southern France has banned people from dressing up as clowns after a spate of attacks in several parts of the country.
There have been a number of assaults by people disguised as fake, “evil” clowns.
Some of those wreaking havoc on the streets have been armed with pistols, knives or baseball bats.
The incidents include one where a youngster hit a passer-by 30 times with an iron bar in Montpellier. He was jailed for four months.
Vendargues, which has a population of about 6,000 and is near Montpellier, is believed to be the first town to impose such a ban.
The decision was made by the mayor, and official Bruno Giraudo said France wants to “avoid any disruption… by evil clowns”.
