There is a new trend that is happening on the streets. It’s known as “knockout.” How it works is teens randomly sucker-punch strangers with the goal of knocking them out cold in one hit. This game can be fatal. Ralph Santiago 46, of New Jersey is a homeless man. He was walking alone in Hoboken one night and was struck with a punch from behind. This blow knocked out Santiago. He had a pre exciting brain injury. This man suffered a seizure, part of a wrought iron fence piercing his body, and shortly after he died. Two weeks later the police arrested the juveniles and charged them in connection with the killing.
What do you think of this new trend?
Do you think more people will start doing this or will the arrest of these two juveniles be the end to this so called game or knockout?

Well done!
I dont understand why kids think it is ok and funny to run around and knock people out. It is terrible. This should not be these kids hobbies.
It is sad to see that this is what people in the United States are resorting to for "fun" or "entertainment". I hope that the arrest of the juveniles will put a stop to this "game".
This is really stupid and dangerous I don't see the point in doing this because it is dangerous and you could end up in jail because of it. I hope that they will end this with these two people getting arrested because it's dangerous and stupid.
Seriously? What is wrong with these people? I am 100% against this trend and hope that the arrest of the 2 will stop it.
honestly if this game did not hurt people like it does and did not include hurting anything I would probably play it. but sadly these kids are punching and even killing people in this game and that its good they are being caught
People are getting more and more stupid. I can't even begin to comprehend why people would want to do this in the first place. What is the point of randomly trying to knock somebody out? Hopefully this ends quickly and anybody that played this 'game' gets put in prison.
I think people do things like this for attention or to let out anger. We should give kids more sport options, maybe high school boxing or another sport like that. The parents would have to be told beforehand though because they might not be OK with their kids boxing.
I think people are so dumb now a days. One day they are going to punch the wrong person and they're going to get it right back and wish they never did it.
I personally think that this is very dumb, what happens if somebody doesn't knock out somebody on the first punch and they are carrying a legal/loaded weapon?
