One of the teenagers, Michael Bosworth Jr., 18, later died of his wounds. The second person was treated for minor injuries, and a third person in the group was unharmed, the sheriff\u2019s office said. The two friends with Mr. Bosworth were both under 18.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The teenagers had been in the neighborhood to make a TikTok video, one of them told investigators in an affidavit filed in Spotsylvania Circuit Court. A \u201cding dong ditch\u201d prank involves ringing doorbells or knocking on the front doors of houses before running away, and has become popular fodder for social media videos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe juvenile advised it\u2019s something that people are doing to put on TikTok,\u201d the affidavit said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The group had knocked on a few doors in the area, one of the teenagers told a detective, adding that they were not familiar with the neighborhood. They were running away from a residence when they were shot, according to the affidavit. At least one video showing the teenagers doing the prank was still on one of the friends\u2019 phones, the affidavit said. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The authorities arrested Tyler Chase Butler, 27, of Spotsylvania County, on Tuesday on charges of second degree murder, malicious wounding and use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, the sheriff\u2019s office said. He was being held at Rappahannock Regional Jail on no bond, it said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Bosworth was a senior at Massaponax High School in Fredericksburg, Va. The high school, which was set to hold its graduation for seniors on May 13, sent a message to the school community that counselors would be available to help grieving students.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A spokesman for the Spotsylvania Sheriff\u2019s Office, reached by phone, declined to comment further. A lawyer for Mr. Butler did not immediately respond to requests for comment. G. Ryan Mehaffey, the Commonwealth\u2019s Attorney for Spotsylvania County, declined to comment but said a preliminary hearing had been scheduled for June 18.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">This style of prank has led to tragedy in the past. In 2020, a man in California crashed into a car of six teenagers, killing three of them, after <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/07\/16\/us\/doorbell-prank-california-sentence.html\" title=\"\">they played a similar prank on him<\/a>.
