Have you seen this facebook post that's going viral in Buffalo? The author says a creepy clown was seen at the Outer Harbor. There's only one problem...

 

That photo isn't from Buffalo. Take a look at this article from Minnesota Public Radio from August, in Green Bay. Does the photo look familiar?

 

 

There haven't been any reported sightings of so-called 'creepy clowns' in Western New York, but clown sightings in other states have many people on edge.
