Sheriff warns of dangerous virus play students – WSOC TV

Union County, NC – Sheriff Eddie Cathey asks the parents to intervene after the MPs have reacted to several incidents where students play a dangerous viral game called “Senior Assassin” in the areas of Weddington, Waxhaw and Wesley.

The game includes students who aim at their classmates by attacking them with water guns that often resemble real weapons, which leads to confusion and potential danger. The MPs have received reports from teenagers who wear dark clothes and masks that are suspicious of houses and companies.

“Parents, we need your help! Please talk to your teenagers about the serious risks of this game, ”said Sheriff Cathey. “Wearing water pistols that are similar to real weapons in public or private places can lead to confusion, fear and dangerous situations.”

One of the most worrying incidents occurred late Wednesday evening near the Crane Road, where the MPs were called into a house after two black -dressed high school students were hidden along the side of a house.

They prepared for attacking and spraying water on their classmates when they returned home and climbed out of her car.

Fortunately, the MPs first arrived and grabbed before the situation escalated.

Sheriff Cathey emphasized how important parents with their children had open discussions about the potential dangers and consequences of participation in this game. He emphasized the risk that such activities were misinterpreted as suspicious or criminal behavior, especially in communities in which homeowners take security seriously and may be armed.

The residents are encouraged to immediately report suspiciously or criminal behavior to the authorities at 911. The Sheriff's office works with the community to ensure security and prevent further incidents in connection with the game.
