Police in Hickory, North Carolina, have identified a man accused of swinging an ax at a woman while wearing a clown costume.

An arrest warrant has been obtained for 31-year-old Jimmy Raybon of Connelly Springs on a charge of assault with a deadly weapon.

Hickory police spokeswoman Chrystal Dieter said the man came to the woman's Hickory house around 4:30 a.m. Friday wearing a clown mask and a multicolored wig.

Authorities say the man didn't hurt the woman, and she was able to remove his mask and recognized him as an acquaintance before he left.

A motive for the attack was not immediately clear.
