A Houston man aspiring to be an influencer created a disturbing social media video in which he used a “high-powered” water gun to target homeless individuals. This bizarre stunt has since gone viral.
Christopher Casey, 34, was seen attacking vulnerable individuals, including many who were disabled or homeless, in Midtown Houston and on the busy Bissonnette Street. He shared videos of these assaults, which caught the attention of the authorities. The Houston Police Department confirmed his actions on Thursday.
As a result of this unsettling behavior, Casey faced two charges related to assault and causing bodily harm, as reported by the police.
The Houston Police Department noted that Major Offenders and Westside Crime Suppression Teams looked into multiple reports of assaults involving disabled and homeless people being sprayed with these powerful water guns.
On his Facebook page, “Kingdom of Tutankhamun,” which boasts nearly 50,000 followers, Casey shared videos showing people being blasted with water guns while going about their day, waiting at bus stops, or even while asleep.
In one particularly troubling video, Casey is seen shooting a homeless man who was asleep and jokingly yelling, “Mommy, wake up, king,” before driving off with laughter.
Overall, footage of these attacks has garnered over 200,000 views online. Authorities confirmed that Casey is featured in the video but suspect he may be involved in other incidents as well.
It was reported that he attempted to post bail but remains in police custody based on online records.
