A new TikTok trend is tempting kids into a dangerous and illegal activity. According to NBC 10 in Providence, Fall River Police said they are investigating three incidents in which Orbeez pellets were shot, once at a person and twice at vehicles. Some videos of the millions of videos under the "Orbeez Challenge" hashtag are harmless, showing how the little beads expand in water, but others suggest freezing the water gel pellets, shooting them from air-powered pellet guns, and posting the results online.

Elizabeth Buck, a UMass Dartmouth professor who researches social media said posting challenge videos can help social media users increase their views and that it's why it's important for families to have conversations about the content kids are consuming online.

Fall River police said they are continuing to investigate the incidents. No arrests have been made.
