\n

A viral TikTok trend, known as the “door kick challenge” or “door knock challenge,” led to the arrests of three Florida teenagers.<\/a><\/p>\n

According to the St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office (SJSO), the teens were arrested on Nov. 23 for loitering and prowling. One is 13 and two are 14.<\/p>\n

Viral video from the “challenge” was captured on the home’s security system. The footage captured the homeowner calling police<\/a> to report that someone was “attempting to kick their door in.”<\/p>\n

In 911 call audio, the homeowner told police that the individuals did not appear to have weapons, but her husband had his weapon “in his hand in case they come back.”<\/p>\n

HOMEOWNERS TERRORIZED IN VIRAL CHALLENGE AS POLICE WARN PRANK COULD TURN DEADLY FOR TEENS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Deputies responded to the property and located three teenagers dressed in dark clothing and gloves, hiding near the victims\u2019 home.<\/p>\n

“Show me your hands! How old are you?” one deputy was heard asking the three teens.<\/p>\n

“Fourteen,” two said.<\/p>\n

“Thirteen,” the third suspect said as they were ushered into the police SUV.<\/p>\n

A deputy was then heard asking the teens if they wanted to “catch a felony today.”<\/p>\n

“What the hell are you guys doing out here acting like this?” the deputy asked.<\/p>\n

“Just being stupid,” one teen responded.<\/p>\n

“You guys want to get shot by a homeowner when you’re kicking their front door<\/a>, and they think you’re breaking in to kill them?” an officer was recorded asking the teens in body camera footage. “Because it will be justified. They don’t even go to prison and you’re 6 feet under.”<\/p>\n

HOMEOWNER ARRESTED AFTER ARMED CLASH WITH TEEN PRANKSTER: REPORT<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

According to SJSO, the teenagers went to multiple homes in the neighborhood, causing damage to the front door of one of the homes.<\/p>\n

The three teens were arrested and charged with loitering and prowling<\/a>. SJSO said that due to the damage caused to the front door of the homes, one of the teens was also charged with criminal mischief.<\/p>\n

“This \u2018challenge\u2019 is not a harmless prank. As you heard in the audio, the complainants were armed, waiting at the front door to shoot the possible intruder. Participating in this criminal act has serious and possibly life-changing consequences<\/a>,” the department said.<\/p>\n

“Parents and guardians \u2013 please talk to your children and teenagers about the dangers of this behavior,” they said. “SJSO will not tolerate any participation in these challenges. We are prepared to arrest and charge individuals involved, regardless of age.”<\/p>\n

The “door kick challenge” has spread on social media, with participants \u2013 mostly teenagers \u2013 aggressively banging on random residential doors, often at night, then running away.<\/p>\n

Though reminiscent of the traditional “ding-dong ditch” prank, this challenge has escalated to significant property damage and caused police departments across the country to warn teens<\/a> of the potentially dangerous consequences.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital has reached out to the SJSO for comment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
