The culprits responsible for pouring a bucket filled with feces, cigarettes butts, and urine on an autistic teenager during a heartless ALS ice bucket challenge prank have been arrested in Ohio, authorities say. 

The 15-year-old's mother discovered the footage on her son's cell phone, and told a CNN affiliate that he was humiliated because his tormentors shared the video on social media. "They used his phone to tape it, and they put it up on Instagram," she said. Cleveland native Drew Carey offered a $10,000 reward for information about whoever was responsible, and was recently joined by Jenny McCarthy and Donnie Wahlberg

Mark Spaetzel, police chief in Bay Village, Ohio, told CNN that the suspect's names will not be released because a "comprehensive investigation" is currently active. Charges will be considered when the investigation wraps.
