pellets hit one person in the head another in the arm if someone struck in the face or an eye. some softer membrane, you know, especially the eye that's gonna cause some significant significant damage or worse, you know, i mean if if you're on the bike and you get hit with something like that you fall off going to the oncoming traffic, who knows what would happen residents say there is concern a specially since this is the third similar incident to happen in the past two weeks morgan hill police say they do not believe the incidents are connected pd says in thursday's investigation they were able to identify the car involved. and later found the teen driver at home with a splatter ball blastroll gun in the back seat of his car. he was then arrested and booked into the santa clara county juvenile hall sergeant. scott. purvis says what's challenging is it doesn't take much to gather needed material. it's sold as a toy for children five years and up. so the accessibility is extremely easy for anybody to go

out and purchase these he says the department doesn't have any direct evidence that thursday's is related to the tiktok challenge but pd believes it is likely seeing social media encouragement to shoot strangers. you'd never want that to happen in any neighborhood. not your own or anywhere else on the other hand. it's not going to stop me from going out for my evening walk and such. i don't think it's systemic or a big problem, but others do consider viral social media trends that glorify harming others a huge problem. easy that that's just crazy. know, i don't. i don't get this tiktok challenge stuff, you know the kids just i don't know they did something else to do police are asking parents to speak with their children about the serious dangers and consequences of this criminal behavior in morgan hill. i'm a madoka still yo abc 7 news alright, let's move to the latest on the pandemic as several european countries are detecting a rise in covid ba2 cases experts here in the us are
