Police were called to New Sudbury on Wednesday night after reports of people in clown masks scaring others.
It may be part of this "social media-fuelled international frenzy" that "has led to reported clown sightings from Cape Breton to the U.S. South."

Sudbury police said no one was hurt last night — and three young people were warned "regarding their actions."
