Any IMPD Officers have update on Clown Mask Assualts East Indy?

[XDdreams]

I work at a school on the Eastside of Indy and we received notification from a community member yesterday of a male in a clown mask approaching women with children and acting creepy, saying creepy things including threats of kidnapping, and in one case physically assaulting a woman.

Wondering if any Officer can provide any update on this, and possibly provide some guidance on how we should guide staff to handle the situation should this come to our school. You can PM or respond in chat.

**Edit to include: I am fully aware that you can't share private details about the case, looking more so for general info. Perhaps you can even come to the school and provide direct guidance to our Admin team.

Thank you

First I've heard of it. You can call the East District Community Resource Unit and have them come out to speak to school admin. The district number is 317-327-6200.

Great, is this the beginning of another clown epidemic like back in 2016?

Waiting on a police report # from the person that was directly assaulted before calling the Community Resource Unit. I hope it was just a random dumba$$ being dumb and not a pattern emerging.
