One of the cases occurred just after midnight on 13 June. The homeowner filmed the incident on a Ring doorbell camera. The footage shows the shirtless teenager approaching the door with at least one other person before kicking the door three times and running away.

“My wife had a panic attack, she was very scared,” said homeowner Geoffrey Gibson.

A Volusia County resident remarked, "Until I saw the video, I didn't even realize it was some youngsters running a very evil prank."

He has no idea how the situation would have unfolded if he had reacted faster: “If they were there when I opened the front door, I don’t know if I could contain myself and not react appropriately to the situation.”

The brutality of such actions can quickly lead to the fact that people involved in such “pranks” are seriously injured, Gibson noted.

“I hope that only children are stupid and that this is some kind of trend among them,” he said. “I’m sure it will disappear very soon, because such behavior can harm people.”

Another resident of the district said that her family faced a similar situation. They thought someone had broken into their house.

According to the hostess, her husband grabbed a gun and rushed to the door.
