First, he was accused of pursuing an alternative lifestyle (nothing wrong with that, and he wouldn’t be the first celebrity to do so); now it appears that, according to the London Free Press, Tinky Winky has really hit the skids:
Halloween took a bizarre and frightening turn in London this weekend when a man dressed as a children’s television character, a purple teletubby, robbed a woman at gunpoint near the city’s core.
London police say a costume-wearing, gun-toting teletubby confronted the woman near the intersection of Talbot and Mill streets just after midnight and demanded cash.
The woman, in her 20’s, gave an undisclosed amount of cash to the robber, who then ran south on Talbot.
