A Utah mother says a TikTok challenge involving toy guns led to her teen coming face-to-face with a real gun.
“It was scary. I didn’t know what to even think,” said Melanie Pollock of Salt Lake City.
The Orbeez TikTok challenge is a viral trend where people drive by and shoot at others with Orbeez beads, or small pellets made of gel. “My son confronted him like, ‘Hey, why are you shooting at us?’ And I guess one of them pulled a real gun on them,” she said.“Nobody wants to hear that their child got a gun in their face — a real one,” she said.
The TikTok challenge is causing concern across the state. Just days ago, an Ogden teen was shot in the eye and is facing permanent damage.“These guns leave pretty bad welts. There was a girl who was on a scooter ride with her family just a little after I got hit, who has a massive welt on her back, according to her parents on Facebook,” he said.
