Eleven Illinois teenagers were hit with felony charges in connection with the alleged luring and beating of two men using dating apps this summer, according to police. Police did not elaborate what the social media trend entailed. On July 8 at around 9:45 p.m., a 41-year-old man reported to police that he'd been beaten by "a group of teenagers" in a parking lot at 606 West Northwest Highway in Mount Prospect, Illinois. Police did not clarify if it was one of more dating apps used to lure the men, or identify the dating apps. The police department is advising parents to speak to their children about partaking in social media trends.
