LITITZ, PENNSYLVANIA — Looks like the police decided to clown around with the people of Lititz after they warned of red ‘IT’ balloons on sewer grates around town ahead of the new movie. <br /> <br />The Lititz police department posted photos on Facebook of red balloons tied to two sewer grates along with a clownish message on Tuesday, the New York Post reported. <br /> <br />If you’re not sure why red balloons are scary, Google it. Oh sorry, we actually mean Google “IT”. <br /> <br />So, in Stephen King’s novel “It,” Pennywise — the scary-ass clown — happens to be a big fan of red balloons. <br /> <br />In their post, the cops gave the prankster or pranksters an A for effort, but said they removed the balloons because IT ain’t funny. <br /> <br /> <br />Plus, police proposed people peruse posthaste Pennywise previews. They also advised the public to watch it with someone with the lights on and sound low. <br /> <br />The movie hits theaters this Friday. IT looks pretty scary.
