An unnamed streamer, who was reportedly filming the area for a Twitch broadcast, was suddenly struck and had his camera stolen by a “thief.”
In the short clip, the streamer is telling the audience about a spray-painted mural before he is suddenly blindsided by a mugger who takes the camera and flees.
In a clip, Wrong Opinions host Josh Lekach shared a quote claiming “a live twitch streamer was robbed live” during a video “boasting of the wonderful new site that is the CHOP zone.”
“This is another wall of our art,” the streamer begins. “An expression of our feelings…” he continues before the camera loses focus and tumbles to the ground.
A man in construction high-visibility attire carrying a blunt object is momentarily seen looking down at the fallen camera before grabbing the device and making off with it.
The footage goes dark, with the original streamer yelling “thief” multiple times while giving chase to the robber.
Hahahah
