A teenage boy has confessed that he has launched a 50 -foot seat from the top floor of a crowded Westfield shopping center as part of an internet joke.
Two young men were arrested after a viral film showing an incident at the Stratford Shopping Center, East London, where they lost the 15kg seating of the buyers who walked below.
The court was told that the earlier obstacles of the binary included “throwing objects from the bridge in the trains”.
A video filmed by one of the boys on March 1 was aired to court, showing a young man who throws a heavy blue chair on a glass before escaping the oath in the opposite direction.
The two 15 -year -old children, who could not be named for legal reasons, appeared on Wednesday’s Stratford Court, where the youth who throwing the chair accepted criminal damage and recklessly causing public disturbance.
The teenager, who filmed the incident, denied the allegations.
The previous charges of criminal damage that reckless life was at risk has been reduced.
“The chair, worth £ 500, was thrown from the upper floor 50 feet,” Prosecutor Elizabeth Aji said.
He told the court that one of the boys “raises a blue sofa and throws it over the glass to the bottom.”
“This film became viral,” he continued.
“Fortunately, no one is injured.”
He added that both boys accepted their clashes in police interviews.
In a statement by the victims, a Westfield security officer said there has been “upset” among customers since the incident.
The boy who throwing the chair told the police, “This is not a depth, no one.”
He also told officers that he and his defendant “regularly” in jokes, including “throwing objects from the bridge in trains”, “regularly”.
The judge of the Talwinder Bottar district released the youth on bail until the time of punishment on August 13.
The next second son appears on September 24.
