This could have very tragic consequences,\u201d warned CVPD Lt. Dan Peak.<\/p>\n<p>He said they\u2019ve received nine reports in the last year of Chula Vista residents being shot in a drive-by-style attack involving airsoft guns or toy guns that fire Orbeez balls. Orbeez are small colorful plastic pellets that expand when placed in water.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s considered assault with a deadly weapon. So, these juveniles may think they\u2019re doing a prank, the next thing you know they\u2019re going to be in Juvenile Hall,\u201d explained Peak.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"Twitter Tweet\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?creatorScreenName=nbcsandiego&amp;dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=eyJ0ZndfZXhwZXJpbWVudHNfY29va2llX2V4cGlyYXRpb24iOnsiYnVja2V0IjoxMjA5NjAwLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X2hvcml6b25fdHdlZXRfZW1iZWRfOTU1NSI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJodGUiLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X3NwYWNlX2NhcmQiOnsiYnVja2V0Ijoib2ZmIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH19&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1499135755280470018&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nbcsandiego.com%2Fnews%2Flocal%2Fseveral-people-in-chula-vista-attacked-in-latest-social-media-challenge%2F2884720%2F&amp;sessionId=ab63963798f878304856bf2e1a3d0c392d5d748a&amp;siteScreenName=nbcsandiego&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2582c61%3A1645036219416&amp;width=500px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1499135755280470018\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\u201cIt was a very cowardly act,\u201d said a Chula Vista man who asked to be identified as \u201cBogey\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKids shouldn\u2019t be going around pretending they\u2019re doing drive-by shootings of people,\u201d added Bogey.<\/p>\n<p>The man said he and his wife were shot last Sunday near Eastlake by a group of teenagers or young men in a four-door car.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStops right next to us.
