BAY VILLAGE, Ohio – Actor and comedian Drew Carey offered to help Bay Village police find the perpetrators behind a prank played on an autistic teenager.

Via Twitter, Carey said that if the police want to start a reward fund to find the people who organized the prank, he would donate $10,000 to it.

Carey, a Cleveland native, followed up by saying if police found the pranksters without a reward, he would donate to Autism Speaks.

The 14-year-old boy's mother found a cell phone video of several Bay High School students dumping a bucket filled with urine and feces on her son in a twisted rendition of the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge.

The video was posted on Instagram.

Bay Village Police Chief Mark Spaetzel called the prank "heinous," and said charges would be brought as soon as police identify the teens who organized the prank.

Bay Village School District faculty sent a letter to students and parents this week informing them of the situation and saying the actions of the teenagers in the video do not reflect the majority of their student body.

The high school organized a vigil for the teen prior to a Friday night football game.

If the Bay Village PD wants to start a reward fund to find who did this, contact me. I'll donate $10k. http://t.co/ugqeLbu5ob — Drew Carey (@DrewFromTV) September 6, 2014
