Footage of a man in a creepy clown costume getting chased out of a taxi office in Leicester, UK by a brave woman.

The video, filmed on Monday at ADT Taxis in Netherhall Road at around 9pm, shows the sinister figure standing in the room.

The CCTV footage then captures the moment mum-of-four Rita, 45, leaps up from her desk and makes a bolt for the clown with her fists clenched.

It is the latest in a number of reported incidents across the country as part of the 'killer clown' craze sweeping Britain.

This is the moment a killer clown prankster got more than he bargained for after being chased out of a taxi control room office by a 45-year-old woman. The brave mum-of-four was confronted by the creepy stranger on her first night shift alone working at ADT Taxis in Netherhall Road, Leicester. The sinister figure appeared and attempted to frighten the worker known only as Rita, as she sat behind the counter at around 9pm on Monday (10/10). But she refused to be intimidated and instead turned the tables on the clown by chasing him out of the office and down the street. CCTV taken from inside the control room shows the moment Rita leaps up from her desk and makes a bolt for the clown with her fists clenched. It is the latest in a number of reported incidents across the country as part of the 'killer clown' craze sweeping Britain.
