BOGOTA (Reuters) - Two clowns were shot and killed by an unidentified gunman during their performance at a traveling circus in the eastern Colombian town of Cucuta, police said Wednesday.

The gunman burst into the Circo del Sol de Cali Monday night and shot the clowns in front of an audience of 20 to 50 people, local police chief Jose Humberto Henao told Reuters. One of the clowns was killed instantly and the second died the next day in hospital.

"The killings had nothing to do with the show the victims were performing at the time of the incident," Henao said in a telephone interview. "We are investigating the motive."

With an entrance fee of under 50 U.S. cents, Circo del Sol de Cali attracts mostly poor Colombians. It pitched it tents in Cucuta, near the border with Venezuela, earlier this month.

"The clowns came out to give their show and then this guy came out shooting them," one audience member told local television. "It was terrible."

I read about this yesterday. Another very famous clown was shot in Columbia a few days earlier as well. WTF?? Who kills clowns? Who could possibly be proud that they shot a clown?

About on par with the guy who brings a knife to a gun fight is the guy who brings a leather crop or spiked dildo to a gun fight.

I always thought a cool name for a metal band would be Violence Towards Clowns.

Actually, that's a pretty terrible name for a band.

I couldn't find the earlier article, but I would guess some sicko with very atypical psychosis(es): Especially if the fuckwad didn't have many elaborate premeditated schemes set up -- I'm fairly certain that's well beyond average by any means of comparitive serial killer psychoanalysis.
