Man arrested for spraying bug killer on food inside Mesa Walmart​

MESA, AZ (AZFamily) — A man faces multiple charges after he allegedly filmed himself spraying bug killer on food products at a Walmart Supercenter in Mesa.

Police arrested 27-year-old Charles Smith on Saturday in connection with the incident that happened on Thursday at the megastore at Stapley Drive and Baseline Road.

Mesa police said they found out about the video showing the items getting sprayed on Friday.

Police said Smith entered the store with plans to film social media pranks, but he instead grabbed a can of Hot Shot Ultra Bed Bug and Flea Killer without paying for the item.

Video uploaded to social media, but later deleted, shows Smith spraying the pesticide on various produce items available for purchase, including vegetables, fruit and rotisserie chickens.

A Walmart spokesperson said workers removed all the directly impacted products and cleaned and sanitized the affected area of the store.

Smith reportedly filmed his face, the pesticide can and the act of spraying the items before he posted the video online.

Mesa police began an investigation along with the Tempe Police Department and identified Smith as the suspect. Police contacted Smith, and he turned himself in voluntarily.

Police say Smith admitted to the act in an interview. He faces the following charges:
  • Introducing Poison (Class 6 Felony)
  • Criminal Damage (Class 1 Misdemeanor)
  • Endangerment (Class 1 Misdemeanor)
  • Theft (Class 1 Misdemeanor)

Reddit thread

Apparently his username was "Wolfieparty" aka Wolfie Khaletti.

Reddit thread about him in the ASU community from earlier this year.

Hey everyone,

I wanted to call attention to an influencer who’s been causing trouble both online and in real life. They go by the name Wolfie Khaletti, aka WolfieParty, on TikTok and Instagram. If you’re in the Tempe/ASU or Chandler Mall area, you may have seen them around—often pulling ridiculous and downright disrespectful stunts to gain attention.

Here’s what they’ve been up to:

  1. Throwing Food Off Balconies: Wolfie films themselves tossing food off balconies in public spaces, leaving behind huge messes and risking the safety of people below.
  2. Sneaking Into Fast Food Kitchens: They’ve been caught on camera entering fast food kitchens without permission, creating chaos and disrupting staff who are just trying to do their jobs. It’s unsanitary and disrespectful.
  3. General Nuisance Behavior: Whether it’s causing messes in public spaces or harassing workers, Wolfie’s antics go beyond harmless pranks and veer into malicious territory.
These stunts are being done for views and clout, but they come at the expense of people’s time, safety, and livelihoods. It’s not just online antics—these incidents are happening in our community. If you see them around Tempe, ASU, or Chandler Mall, be aware and don’t let yourself get pulled into their content.

What You Can Do:

  • If you see their videos on TikTok or Instagram, report them for violating community guidelines.
  • If you witness them causing trouble in public, consider documenting it and notifying the appropriate authorities or management.
  • Most importantly, don’t engage with their content—it only gives them the validation they’re seeking.
Influencers like Wolfie Khaletti give social media creators a bad name by prioritizing clout over respect for others. Let’s make it clear that this kind of behavior isn’t welcome in our community—or anywhere, for that matter.

Has anyone else here encountered Wolfie or dealt with similar influencer antics in your area?

Looks like most of the comments are people raging out. The only supportive posts are from literal thug ass niggas that think crimes are great. He’s just another Johnny Somali type with a bunch of rebel teens and ex-cons into anarchy glazing his dumb ass.

The difference is Johnny Sonali has caused me to chuckle at least once. And if you count him getting his ass beat a whole ass laugh.

Why the fuck doesn't anyone fight anymore? Trip the nigger shoplifters as they run out of the CVS. Knock this retard to the floor and stomp his head until he's a vegetable. I'm fucking tired of chimps being allowed to ruin civil society with zero consequences.
