Warning over new TikTok trend that could leave people pregnant

People are being warned about a new Tik Tok trend - where holes are poked in supermarket condoms.

The craze sees people dare each either to use needles to pierce the contraception on shelves.

An anonymous post on the Spotted Witney Official Facebook group says: "There's a new trend on Tik Tok where content creators are going into supermarkets and make holes into "[condoms]" by using needles.

"Please ensure you purchase your "the items that shall not be named" from a safe location/behind the counter."

Damaged condoms risk unwanted pregnancy as well as the spread of disease.

There have been two viral condom challenges in the past on social media.

One involved snorting a latex condom through your nasal cavity and into the back of the throat.

The second was where a water-filled condom is dropped onto a person's head.

Both variations carry a risk of choking.
