Two teenagers were arrested in Florida after surveillance video captured them kicking in people's doors as part of a TikTok trend, according to the Hernando County Sheriff's Office.

Two Florida teens have been identified and arrested after surveillance video captured them kicking in the doors of residents' homes as part of a TikTok challenge. The Hernando County Sheriff's Office said the two 15-year-olds were arrested on multiple counts of burglary of a dwelling after they admitted to kicking in the front doors of four homes.

According to authorities, one teen told detectives they kicked the doors in response to a trend they saw on social media called the 'Door Kick Challenge.' The teen also said they never intended to enter any of the homes. This situation was exceptionally dangerous on several levels,' said Sheriff Al Nienhuis. 'First, there was a very good possibility that these young men could have been shot and killed by a homeowner lawfully defending the household. Second, if this occurred, the homeowner would have been burdened with the fact he or she killed two teenagers who were participating in a stupid activity.
