Police Raid The Island Boys Florida Home Leading To The Arrest Of A Suspect In The Murder Of An 8-Year-Old Child

Having been in the news again and again recently, TikTok's notorious set of twins known as the Island Boys are making headlines again after they were involved in a police raid at their home in Palm Beach County, Florida. A long-time friend of theirs who'd been crashing on their couch is now the main suspect in the murder of an 8-year-old girl. According to local news reports, a SWAT team invaded their home on Monday, causing memes and reactions across Twitter last night and into today.

The suspect's name is Andrew Thomas, a 20-year-old friend of Kodiyakredd and Flyysoulja, who, according to TMZ, had been crashing on their couch in their rental home in Coral Springs, Florida. A search warrant was issued over the shooting and killing of 8-year-old Ronziyah Atkins last Friday. When the SWAT team acted on a search warrant, Flyysoulja was home to witness it.

Apparently, Thomas ran up to him flustered and worried, trying to get Flyysoulja to hide his handgun. This "apparent associate of theirs" was taken into custody and it even brought Flyysoulja to tears according to Complex. The Island Boys affirmed that they had "no idea any of this was going on."

After Complex tweeted a link to their article on the matter last night, users across platforms started reacting to the Island Boys' freshest controversy. It proved easy to dunk on them this time mostly due to the intimate details relayed by the duo involving their tears and apparent ignorance.

I am shocked, shocked, that guys with face tattoos might be hanging out with people who are not upstanding citizens.

Their seemingly monthly virality snowball has certainly picked up this week, following in the footsteps of their other recent classics like them getting booed off-stage and Kodiyakredd being accused of domestic abuse. As of right now though, in regards to this investigation, they haven't been charged with anything and seem out of the authorities' interest. Regardless, the image of an Island Boy crying in the eyes of any meme creator is apparently hilarious.
