Police across the UK have been issuing warnings in response to a TikTok craze that sees people cover cars in beans.
Both Surrey Police and West Yorkshire Police have issued warnings so far after cars and homes were targeted by youths in these areas, with the new craze known as ‘beaning’.
A spokesperson for Surrey Police said:
“Local officers have received reports of incidents in Wonersh where beans and other food has been poured onto residents front doors and cars overnight. The victims are understandably distressed by this unacceptable behaviour.”
This has led to some shops being advised to stop selling beans and other tinned food such as Spaghetti hoops to teenagers.
