18-year-old TikToker who goes by Mizzy a.k.a. @secretmizzy, infamous for his prank videos, was arrested Monday evening on, May 22, 2023. The arrest comes after he shared several "vile" prank videos including stealing a woman's dog, jumping into random cars, and ripping books in a library.
According to a statement by the Metropolitan Police, Mizzy was arrested following an investigation on the "suspicion of causing public nuisance" and added that he remained in custody. The arrest comes on the heels of his last prank in which he walked into a stranger's home uninvited in London, causing a mass backlash against the teenager.
According to British influencer Oil London, Mizzy surrendered to the law enforcement authorities and is being held at the Bethnal Green Police Station. Chief Superintendent James Conway of the Central East Command Unit said:
"'I do not underestimate the widespread upset, distress and concern that these videos caused."
His other pranks included harassing women who were waiting for a train, an elderly woman who was walking her dog at the park, and riding an e-bike through a Sainsbury's grocery store while security guards chase him. In his recent video, the TikToker is seen harassing a Jewish man who looks distraught.
As the video went viral, internet users were left horrified and many lashed out at Mizzy for tormenting people.
