Trick-or-treat arrived early this year for newly appointed Fire Chief Kendall Eiren when she was allegedly attacked by a woman dressed as a clown early Tuesday evening. According to reports, the woman approached Chief Eiren, accused her of being a "blue coat" and then lunged at her with a knife, stabbing the Chief in the leg during the ensuing struggle. Volunteer firefighter Kai Roberts ably assisted the Chief in subduing the clown woman after radioing for help from the AP Police department. The alleged assailant was taken into custody and Chief Eiren received treatment for her wound, from which she is recovering nicely. The clown woman refused to identify herself to police and carried no identification. An AP Times reporter spoke with the suspect and learned that she claims to be named "Fray". She speaks with what might be an Irish accent, looks to have been living rough, and was ravenously hungry. According to police sources, the suspect is "crazy as a shithouse rat..." and might face "long term commitment before there's ever a trial".
