Teen Choking Incident: Prank Takes a Dark Turn in Georgia
A wild prank took an unexpected twist in Georgia as a man was arrested for allegedly choking a teenager who had knocked on his door and dashed away. Tybee Island Police Department shared that the situation escalated quickly when the man, William Raymond Cole, 49, reportedly lost his cool.
Facing Serious Charges
The 49-year-old, William Raymond Cole, finds himself in hot water with serious charges. On Monday, he was slapped with felony aggravated assault and first-degree felony cruelty to children charges due to the incident. The event occurred on a Sunday when Cole’s temper ignited.
Mischievous Knock-Knock
The scene began innocently enough with a group of teenagers playing the classic “Ding Dong Ditch” prank on Cole’s doorstep. The relentless knocks fueled Cole’s fury, prompting him to chase the pranksters away in his car. But his anger wasn’t so easily quenched.
High-Speed Pursuit
Instead of letting it go, Cole hopped into his car, ready for a high-speed pursuit. In an attempt that sounds like a scene from a quirky comedy, Cole apparently tried to strike the fleeing teens with his vehicle. It’s like a bizarre blend of road rage and teenage shenanigans.

The situation turned even darker when Cole got out of his car and decided to chase the teens on foot. But things took a sinister turn as he allegedly choked one of the pranksters. It’s like the plot of a bad slapstick movie, only it’s real life.
Intervention and Escape
Thankfully, a witness stepped in to halt the alarming encounter. It’s not every day you witness a comic book-style intervention in the middle of a suburban chase. The heroic intervention forced Cole to flee the scene, leaving behind a bizarre tale of suburban chaos.
Evading the Law
The situation took another twist before Cole’s arrest. Authorities reported that Cole was actively dodging the police.
