Cops have warned against the latest TikTok challenge which sees pranksters shoot at unsuspecting victims using gel pellet guns.

The craze - dubbed the Orbeez challenge, after the brand of gel gun generally used - has caused injuries, and led to criminal charges.

In one video captured by a Ring surveillance camera, a mother in Florida is seen pushing her toddler's stroller when a car drives behind her driveway. Shots ring out.

'Are you f****** kidding?' she asks. Police did not say whether the mother or her child were injured.

In Peachtree City, Georgia, police released photos of a child with a bloody nose and welts on his torso after he was allegedly shot at by teens who had 'modified' the beads to make them more painful.

'This child was uninvolved riding his bicycle on the path when he was assaulted by a group of teens riding by shooting these weapons at him,' police said on Facebook. 'The police department will be pursuing criminal charges on all persons caught discharging these weapons at other persons on city property.'

Meanwhile, Canadian toymaker Spin Master is currently marketing a play set of 2,000 beads under the name 'Orbeez Challenge.' The company does not make the toy guns used by those who participate in the 'challenge.'

As of Sunday afternoon, videos with the hashtag #OrbeezChallenge have garnered nearly 153 million views on TikTok.

One of these days they're going to point these toy guns at the wrong person(s), or even shoot the person, and the result is going to be real bullets being sent in response.

Conspiracy theory? Put stupid crap like this on tiktok in the hopes that someone does use a gun to create more gun "control" bs via the media, politicians and other nuts?
