Bucks County Police Warn Against 'Door Kick' TikTok Challenge

BUCKS COUNTY, PA — Police in Bucks County are warning children and teens not to take part in the latest Tik-Tok challenge.

The so-called "Door Kick Challenge" involves wearing a mask, banging or kicking on someone's door, running away to not get caught and documenting the ordeal on social media.

"It's a dumb and dangerous prank," said Solebury Police. "You don’t know what ways the homeowner or resident will protect themselves, their home, or their family when they feel threatened by this act. It could cause real harm to all involved."

Parents should talk to their children and teens about the dangers and the potential for criminal charges, police said.
