Getting Arrested Was Only The Start Of This Twitch Streamer's Problems
Twitch streamer Mr_13ig's rowdy look at NewZ earned him a late-night visit from Washington state law enforcement, and things only went downhill from there.
Mr_13ig, also known as Big, had his livestream of NewZ interrupted when a police offer appeared at his door due to a noise complaint. The livestream kept filming, however, catching his entire interaction with the responding officer. That interaction ended up being quite long – Big repeatedly objected to the officer's request to give him his name and date of birth, but did offer up a variety of other thoughts, including his neighbor's alleged crimes, his opinion of Alienware computers (not a fan), and the livestream itself. Eventually, the officer arrested Big, leaving the door to his apartment unlocked.
Turns out Big's concerns about his fellow apartment dwellers were correct, however, as minutes after being taken away by police, his neighbor can be seen entering the apartment and stealing a number of items – including Big's shoes. Like Big's argument with police, the robbery was streamed live to his viewers, prompting a few good Samaritans to call the cops...again.
Big has uploaded an excerpted video of the stream to YouTube, which you can watch below.
On the bright side, Big says in the video description that his neighbor was arrested for the robbery, and his belongings had been returned to him. As for his own run-in with the law, Big is still fighting the charges, which he characterizes as erroneous.
