HOUSTON – A man who was seen in a now-viral TikTok video slamming his truck into several parked vehicles outside a club in a north Houston parking lot is now facing five felony charges.
Christopher Tuggle, 49, has been charged with four counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and one count of criminal mischief.

According to court documents, on July 12, Tuggle intentionally drove his truck into eight vehicles in the parking lot of Club Mesquite, located in the 5900 block of the North Freeway, causing at least $60,000 in damages.
Later that afternoon, Tuggle went to a Houston police station and filed a robbery report, claiming he had been at Club Mesquite just after midnight—the same time the incident occurred. He told officers that he was being robbed by three men and rammed his vehicle into another while trying to escape.
However, investigators found no evidence that a robbery took place at that location during that time.
Tuggle surrendered to the court Monday morning.
