The guys behind the YouTube sensation "Miami Zombie Attack Prank!" found themselves getting attacked after an ill-advised attempt to punk a Boca Raton man went awry and the victim went ballistic on the two filmmakers.

And if getting chased and nearly beaten wasn't enough for their troubles, one of the pranksters was jailed Friday for 20 hours and now faces a felony bomb hoax charge. On Monday night, Boca Raton Police caught up to his colleague, who now faces the same charges.
Jonathan Vanegas, 20, of Delray Beach, spent Friday night in the Palm Beach County Jail. He spoke of the incident Monday, saying that he and his filmmaking partner, Vitaly Zdorovetskiy, also of Delray Beach, did not intend for their antics to incite a violent reaction or result in getting arrested.
Vanegas said he could still barely believe what happened.
"We go to the Boca jail, I'm shirtless for about four hours until I go to the county jail," Vanegas said, saying his shirt came off in the melee. "It wasn't that bad, but the worst part about it was that I was detained on the first floor with 16 other cellmates and we don't have beds or anything."
Vanegas at the police station. Man-up, dumbass. I've been to jail...it ain't that fuckin' bad.
While Vanegas was willing to meet with a reporter to talk about the incident, Zdorovetskiy was wary of showing his face in public because of fears that he would be arrested. An arrest report outlining Friday's incident says that probable cause exists for his arrest on bomb hoax charges.
But Zdorovetskiy said Monday he doesn't regret the prank.
"I'm just sad the person got that upset," said Zdorovetskiy, who landed in jail Monday night." (More)
