Fall River woman warns after becoming victim to dangerous TikTok challenge

A TikTok challenge that began to take place late last year, has seen a victim in Fall River.

Elisha Jones posted on social media that she was the latest victim of the Lug Nut Challenge.

“Found out there is a new TikTok challenge stealing lug nuts. Someone took 5 out 6 of my lug nuts last night. Lower highlands area. Everyone check your vehicles! My child was in my car when it started shaking like crazy on the highway.”

Back in October, Massachusetts police confirmed that they were seeing evidence of the lug nut challenge.

The challenge consists of loosening lug nuts on a vehicle, seeing what happens, and posting it on TikTok for likes.

One Massachusetts resident admitted to WWLP News that they were a victim of the challenge, which resulted in a tire falling off while the vehicle was being driven.

WWLP spoke to a Massachusetts towing company who stated that they had to fix lug nuts on several vehicles.

Tampering with a vehicle is against the law and could result in jail time and paying restitution to the victim.

In addition to the lug nut challenge, TikTok has seen dangerous challenges such as the black out challenge, the fire challenge,, the Benadryl challenge, and the devious lick challenge.
