Amarillo Clown Sighting At Walmart Ends With Arrest

Nope, it wasn't the Walmart on Georgia.

The whole country has been on high alert for the past few weeks after several cities reported sightings of creepy clowns without an explanation.

Just a few days ago, Amarillo felt the terror when clowns were seen wandering around in different parts of town. Supposedly, the clowns were just promoting a local haunted house, but that hasn't stopped people from taking steps to be prepared.

On Thursday, October 6th, a man dressed as a clown was following cars in the Coulter Walmart parking lot. His threatening behavior led to a call to the police.

When the Amarillo police showed up, they identified the man as David Anthony Talbot-Smith. Apparently, Smith had two outstanding warrants, so he was booked into county jail, as well as receiving a criminal trespass at all Amarillo Walmart locations.

Be aware of your surroundings when you're out and about, especially at night.
