BOGOTA, Colombia ? Two clowns in a traveling circus were shot to death in the middle of their performance by an unknown gunman, police in the eastern Colombian town of Cucuta said.

The gunman burst into the Circo del Sol de Cali and shot the clowns in front of an audience of 20 to 50 people attending a performance Monday night, police said. One of the clowns was killed instantly and the second died the next day in hospital.

Police said they knew of no motive for the killings.

Clowns freak me out big time. I once had to leave an IHOP because there was some clown in there making animal balloons.

I hate HATE them. any kind. My fear stems from seeing parts of IT when i was little. I remeber vividly walking into the living room and my dad watching it, not knowing i was there.
*shudder* it still freaks me out. I hate them, although this story is sad.

Yeah, that movie did me in as well and scarred me for life. I have trouble just looking at the box cover for it when I'm in the video store. As did the little clown doll on Poltergeist that had a smiley face when it was in the chair but then a frown face after it crawled under the bed.
