A teacher, Jason Hughes, died in Georgia after being run over during a toilet paper prank outside his home.

Hughes had come outside to confront teenagers who were rolling his trees with toilet paper when he tripped and fell into the road.

One of the teens driving a vehicle accidentally ran over him, and Hughes later died at the hospital, News Nation has reported.

Five teenagers were arrested at the scene; Jayden Ryan Wallace faces first-degree vehicular homicide and reckless driving charges, while the others were charged with trespass and littering.

Police say the incident is still under investigation.
