A dangerous mobile app game called Mr. Assassin has become popular in the United States, in which s carry water guns to unload them on their targets, whom they locate by means of the cell phone.

This entails serious risks that teenagers do not measure in order to complete their challenges, such as entering private property and carrying something that could be identified by the authorities as a real weapon.

Unfortunately, the use of this game has already taken some casualties, such as in Kansas, where the father of a girl who was hit by a water blast in a Walmart parking lot thought she was in danger, and without thinking shot her 'attacker', a teenager who was playing 'Water Wars', and was left with permanent damage to his spine so he will not be able to walk again.

On April 20, another tragedy occurred, this time in Arlington, Texas, where a high school student and promising young baseball player was seriously injured while playing a game of this controversial game.

This was the absurd accident

Isaac Leal, 17, a senior at South Grand Prairie High School, jumped onto the back of a jeep driven by his 'target' in the game, a woman who was unaware of his presence and accelerated for a couple of minutes in which Leal struggled to stay on board the vehicle.

After that time, the young man could no longer hold on and fell to the pavement, hitting his head hard, so he was treated by paramedics called by neighbors to 911, who appear in images captured by a doorbell camera and who rushed him to Medical City Arlington for treatment.

Leal is in the hospital on life and unfortunately the prognosis is not encouraging, which came to truncate his future in baseball, as he already had several scholarship offers to pitch in college.
