[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] The teen wanted for body-slamming a 68-year-old woman and then dragging her into a pool in a shocking viral video has turned himself into police.

Leon Balfour, 16, turned himself into police Monday evening, saying 'I messed up and I have to own up to it.'

He was charged with one count of battery on a person 65 years of age or older. Video shows him arriving at the Broward County juvenile detention center Monday night. He is set to make his first court appearance sometime Tuesday.

'I’m very happened that they caught the person,' victim Nancy James told CBS Miami.

#4  "Twas merely a case of high spirits.
My classmates were screeching like parrots...
And impulse control?
I'm a merry old soul!
Goodness me, must you mete out demerits?"

Also, fine filius. Duh.

#2  Kudos for her.

Is li'l Leon Balfour punctilious?
Oh, hell yes! His materfamilias:
"My baby likes swimmin'
With hip-fractured women,
But turns himself in. A good filius!"
