Maricopa County Mugshots of the Week: Clownin’ Around

At the end of the week, we bring you a roundup of visitors to the desert’s own Fourth Avenue Jail. To be considered for our Maricopa County mugshots of the week, get arrested, strike a pose, and we’ll take care of the rest.

This week, all of our alleged offenders look like clowns — figuratively, for the most part. At least one just literally looks like a circus clown. Enjoy.
