Kaden Lopez, come on down.
The 18-year-old was arrested for alleged involvement in the latest in a string of incidents involving fans at WNBA games launching lime green sex toys toward the court during game action.
Lopez was taken into custody by Phoenix police while inside PHX Arena after he allegedly threw a “green dildo” and struck a man and his 9-year-old niece during Tuesday’s contest between the Mercury and Sun, FOX 10 Phoenix reported.
The object did not reach the court.
Kaden Lopez was reportedly booked into jail on suspicion of disorderly conduct, assault, and public display of explicit sexual material.
Fox 10 added that: “Video footage shows Lopez, sitting in his seat, he retrieves the green dildo from his sweater front pocket, then throws the dildo forward. He then stands up and leaves the area,” a court document read
Lopez reportedly apologized for his actions and described them as a “stupid prank that was trending on social media.”
Documents showed that the teenager purchased the sex toy on Monday to take it to the game.

“Free bro. He ain’t gotta make it in there 😭🙏🏽,” one person stated.
“Bro really woke up and said, “Ima risk my freedom for a lime-green silicon”. Operation Grand Theft Dildo. Can’t even make this stuff up. 18 with a record over a toy,” a second person said of Kaden Lopez
“You couldn’t pay me enough to go to one of those games. I’ve never seen a sports league treat fans/spectators worse than the WNBA,” a third person wrote.
“He looks exactly how I’d expect him to. Dweeb ass lil boy needs to do something constructive with his time instead of playing with a penis,” a fourth person added.
“Judge needs to give him the book. These girls can’t work knowing a dildo could hit them at any point in time,” a fifth person commented.
“The hero we all didn’t know we needed. Has done more to bring attention to the WNBA than anyone in recent history. What a legend,” one final person wrote about Kaden Lopez.
