A video emerged online showing a group of youths inside what appears to be a hotel room (from the balcony, appears to be MBS but unconfirmed).
One of the youths then emerged from what appears to be the kitchen (or toilet) with a filled water bottle in hand and holding up a $10 note to the camera.
He then walked towards the balcony of the room and threw the water bottle down from the building, before climbing higher onto the railing to marvel at his “work”.
