Adin Ross swatted again while streaming on Kick
Another day, another swatting for Adin Ross.
Controversial Kick streamer Adin Ross has been the victim of swatting many times, usually the result of a prank gone wrong. Viewers will often figure out where Ross is located during a livestream and call the police and other officials on him.
It has just happened once more.
Adin Ross swatted at the gym
Ross and HSTikkyTokky decided to livestream from a boxing gym that was unfortunately recognizable to a viewer. The troll called the police and warned them of a threat at the boxing gym, leading to some cops showing up during the stream.
Ross is clearly used to this behavior from fans and could be heard telling his friend “we’re fine” a few times.
In response to the suspicious call, police had Ross evacuate the building and sit outside while they searched the area. Once the search was complete, Ross was allowed to head back into the gym.
Luckily, this was another swatting incident that led to nothing dangerous for Ross but it should be noted that swatting is more than a prank. Swatting has led to people getting killed by police in the past over fake bomb threats and hostage accusations.
