Adin Ross Is Swatted

In a swatting attempt that was caught on camera last night, three armed police officers approached Twitch star Adin Ross’ bedroom while holding their weapons ready. 

Ross stood up to use the restroom while he was streaming. Three policemen entered his room not long after with their firearms drawn. After a brief search of his room, the cops moved on to the remainder of his residence. Ross returned to the space and announced the stream’s end, appearing a little taken aback. 

Adin ross stated; “That was insane. Whatever troll did it, you did it. You officially did it. It’s never happening ever again. Crazy…” 

Ross has sadly received swattings before. Ross was swatted for the first time at home, but he had previously been swatted at a live fan event in Los Angeles a little over a year before. Ross was upset even though the arrest turned out to be a hoax. Swatting is when viewers, trolls, and rival gamers learn a streamer’s address and then contact the police or FBI to report a dangerous situation taking place there. They frequently claim that there are hostages or weapons present. 

Many well-known streamers have encountered this terrifying situation, including xQc, who had to move several times in order to escape being swatted “daily.” Swatting has previously resulted in gamers being killed by the police. Swattering is now regarded as a criminal offense as a result. 

Ross hasn’t made any public statements since the event that occurred on his most recent live stream.
