‘Killer clowns’ have reportedly been spotted in Liverpool

People are saying they’ve seen creepy ‘killer clowns’ in Liverpool.

The craze, which started on college campuses in the US, has spread to UK soil in the last few days.

Now one Twitter user claims he saw a clown in the city centre today.

Elaborating to The Tab, he told us: “I couldn’t get a picture. I was horrified and he was doing about 40MPH.

“He had a white face, black eyes and a red wig, and he was driving a white transit van with England flags all over it down St. John’s Lane.”

Elsewhere in the UK, a clown was spotted outside Belfast nightclub Villa last night.

There have been at least six clown sightings in Newcastle, prompting Northumbria Police to arrest one brandishing a knife.
