VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. – Three juveniles in Volusia County are facing serious charges after deputies said they kicked a door in Deltona as part of a social media “door kick challenge.”
According to a news release, the teens ran up to a home on Loblolly Street in Deltona on Saturday evening and kicked the door during what CBS News said is a TikTok challenge.

Deputies said the teens were initially uncooperative, but one of them had a distinctive pink fuzzy mask in their pocket and was playing with it while talking to the deputy. The same mask could be seen on the home’s surveillance video.
“Parents, I urge you to talk with your kids about the serious consequences participating in this challenge can have,” Sheriff Mike Chitwood said on social media.
Although the teens said they were just “having fun,” deputies said all three juveniles are now facing a felony charge, but did not say exactly what charge.
News 6 is not naming the teens or showing their faces due to their ages.
