A 12-year-old boy has died after choking at Sonia Sotomayor Community School in Yonkers, New York, on June 10, 2026, in an incident authorities are investigating for possible links to the viral TikTok challenge known as the 'Eat One Doughnut in One Bite.'
Emergency crews were called to the school campus when the student, identified by family as Jacob Medina, began showing signs of distress while walking to his next class. Officials said he may have been attempting to swallow a doughnut in one bite, though they stressed the exact circumstances remain unconfirmed and are still under investigation.
