0:00On March 23rd, kickstreamer Neon faced another swatting incident on Sunday while live on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles. A fake 911 call reported an active shooter in the area, prompting deputies to Russian and detain him and his friend Benji Chavez on there. Knees with hands behind their heads. The situation unfolded quickly as law enforcement checked things out and realized it was a hoax. No arrests followed, and they cleared the scene without further issues. Neon kept his cool during the whole thing, telling his camera crew right away that he knew it was a swatting prank. His friend filming confirmed it too, helping everyone stay level headed. This is the second time he's been hit by one of these dangerous calls in recent months. Back in October, a similar hoax at his Los Angeles home got him banned from filming in the city for a 30-day streaming push. Even with the harassment and past fallout, Neon keeps streaming from Los Angeles without letting up. These attacks on content creators are spiking, putting real lives at risk every time.
