The students were participating in something called the Tik Tok "Orbeez Challenge," in which students use airsoft or BB guns to shoot BBs or pellets at other students, according to authorities.

The challenge started on Tik Tok with students taking fake guns to school, recording their interactions with other students and uploading the video.

Syracuse, NY — A Syracuse neighborhood was targeted by an online challenge. Neighbors in Strathmore say a group of teenagers, armed with what appeared to be toy guns, were causing a big disturbance.
