Clowns: We don’t kill

Leaders of clowns gathered for a convention in Mexico City said on Wednesday they are saddened that a killer disguised himself as a clown to kill a drug lord last week, and insisted no true member of their profession would have committed the crime.

Convicted drug trafficker Francisco Rafael Arellano Felix was shot to death on Friday in the Baja beach resort of Los Cabos by a gunman wearing a clown costume, including a wig and a rubber nose. The dead man was the eldest brother of Mexico’s once-feared Arellano Felix clan.

Clown leader Tomas Morales, known as “Payaso Llantom,” said he was certain the killer was not a professional clown.
