Drew Carey, Jenny McCarthy and Others Offer Reward Following Nasty Ice Bucket Challenge Prank
The Price is Right host Drew Carey expressed outrage in a series of recent tweets, concerning a mean-spirited ALS Ice Bucket Challenge prank.
Instead of ice water, a bunch of bullies dumped a bucket full of human waste on a 15-year-old boy with autism. They then uploaded the video online, using the victim’s camera. A disgusted Carey is offering a $10,000 reward for the wayward teens’ capture.
The prank took place in Bay Village, Ohio. Cleveland-native Carey immediately tweeted his anger after learning about the incident Saturday.
WTF? Just saw this. Horrendous. These kids should be arrested and expelled. (Via @clevelanddotcom) http://t.co/ugqeLbu5ob

Then, Carey offered the $10,000 reward. He was also willing to donate that money to an autism charity.
If they find them w/out reward $, then done :) RT @sonicslifer: @DrewFromTV They'll find them no problem. Give the ten k to Autism Speaks!

Former The View co-host Jenny McCarthy also expressed her fury. She was joined by husband Donnie Wahlberg, as well as former chat show host Montell Williams. They each vowed to match Carey’s $10,000.
If this "shitty" prank was real... Then I am joining @JennyMcCarthy and @DrewFromTV and offering another $10K to the reward! That makes 30K!
