Is it an offense to knock on someone's door and run?

No, it’s not illegal, however, a boy was killed in florida few years ago for playing this game. The homeowner felt threatened and shot the boy who stumbled to a neighbors yard before he collapsed dead. It’s really not worth the risk. Also, you could be charged with trespassing and/or vandalism in some cases.

It’s not against the law, but some people consider it rude.

Don’t worry too much about it, it’s a common prank for giggles and junk.

I guess it could be seen as harassment (which is an offense…) But that really would be pushing it…

If you mean illegal, my guess is no. However, I’m not a lawyer.

it’s well fun 4 da people doin it, an reeeaaally annoyin 4 every1 els

its fun… but the people might have called the police… but hopefully you’ll be well away by then. X

Dear gabbydoctor, I do believe you could be charged with trespassing since you had no intent to visit the person. Sue…good luck
