The owners of Adelaide’s Loritz Circus have been left feeling deflated after an opportunistic thief stole one of their inflatable clowns from a petrol station.
South Australian police believe the thief, “who does not suffer from coulrophobia (a fear of clowns)”, took the four-metre clown around midday on Friday from the service station on Old South Road in Old Reynalla.
