Actually, I like their title better: "Cocaine found on touring clown bus"
HIDALGO - Clowns are not usually a party to large drug investigations.

But on Sunday, customs inspectors at the Hidalgo-Reynosa International Bridge found more than 500 pounds of cocaine on a private tour bus in which a Latin Grammy-nominated musical group of clowns was riding.

About 40 minutes later, an additional 600 pounds of cocaine was seized from another tour bus entering the United States Officials said the two drug seizures were not related...

...Los Payasonicos are popular in the Monterrey area, where they have a television program that airs three times a week. In 2005, they were nominated for a Latin Grammy Award for best Latin Children's Album.

On Monday, an employee in charge of booking the Los Payasonicos for events said the group had sold the bus that was seized at the border six months ago. However, he did not give a specific date or the name of the buyer...

The singing clowns are now being questioned...

Yep, same answer at every hit and run. Someone stole my car and I was getting ready to report the thief. I really don't blame the dealers. If people weren't so stupid they wouldn't use the drugs and there would be no dealers. As long as there are users there will be a source.
