    It’s called Halloween as long as you don’t do anything dangerous. People like to tie up police and other fist responders with their dumb ****

    Yes that would be illegal, it could be called assault or threats of violence.  If it was done on "Halloween" it is hard to say how easy it would be to get convicted, but if done on any other day he would easily be convicted. 

    In a civil court he could be held liable for any damages his prank caused to others.
