Four teens were killed in Upstate New York while driving a stolen Kia vehicle. Investigators are possibly linking the tragedy to the “Kia Challenge,” which is a viral social media trend that shows people how to steal a car using a USB cord. NBC News’ Morgan Chesky reports on how police departments across the U.S. have been sounding the alarm on this trend for months.

Don't buy Kia's
Yeah the real terrible outcome was that there was not more of them in the car!
C YA! BYE BYE 👋 NOW!
0:17 They no longer had their entire lives in front of them once they stole a car.
Would be funny if all cars had The Club in 2023.
Never feel sorry for them anymore
They don’t look eager to steal anything from BLM
Parents and guardians, please talk to your kids. This insanity is going nowhere good. So sad…

Buy a manual transmission. Problem solved.
Another reminder Tik Tok’s real purpose is to make people dumber.
Ok 👍
Ironic.. They went K.I.A. in a Kia.
Kia – Kia – boys = Daisy's
Seems like a shelf solving problem.
Darwin Award for all involved
Condolences to the stolen Kia
I would never put my life or my friend life in danger doing something so dangerous
Why can the DOT create policy changes to keep Kia from building their cars so easy hotwire? Who is in charge of the DOT? Oh, wait…never mind.
To be fair, at least one of the thieves on the highway waddled away more than they ran.
SO SAD IM SO HEART BROKEN FOR THE KIA OWNER! PRAYERS GOING YOUR WAY! LOL 👍
