Did Fanum Get Arrested By NYPD While Streaming Dominican Day Parade in New York City?
Streamer Roberto Gonzalez aka Fanum fans were making frantic queries to know the latest.
Read on to know more about the whole episode.
Well-known streamer Roberto was livestreaming from the Dominican Day parade in New York City when he was stopped by the NYPD police.
The Police had their weapons out when Fanum’s Lamborghini Urus was pulled over.
Did Fanum Get Arrested?
No, he was not arrested but his driver Walton was arrested. The Police also drove off with his Lamborghini Urus.
Fanum was livestreaming from the Dominican Day parade in New York City and the Twitch streamer’s car was surrounded by fans.
He also live-streamed the entire thing, but the VoD has since been deleted.
After streaming for an hour he was trying to leave the area when he was stopped by the police.
Strangely the Police had their guns out when they approached the streamer’s car.
Though Fanum remained calm through the whole incident he seemed perplexed and repeatedly asked as to why they were approaching his vehicle with weapons in hand.
He questioned
“He’s got his gun out, why does he have his gun out?!”
At this moment Roberto’s stream stopped abruptly though the story continued in his and Ray’s Snapchat.
After the Police arrested the streamer’s driver and drove away his vehicle leaving him stranded and he had to walk his way out of the parade.
His and Ray’s video showed that the NYPD had even deployed a chopper which was circling above and surveying the whole scene.
A few hours after Roberto’s Lamborghini was seized, images emerged of an NYPD officer posing for photos with the streamer’s car.
The picture was captioned-
“Dominican Day parade. They are outside, we are outside too.”
Another popular streamer Kai Cenat responded to the pictures and he said,
“[NYPD] F*** EM.”
However, Fanum himself hasn’t responded to the images.
The AMP crew had a brush with the authorities earlier also.
In 2023 Kai Cenat’s NYC stream hit the headlines for shutting down entire blocks in New York City.
He had to apologize for his actions and had to pay a hefty fine of $55,000 though no further action was taken by the NYPD.
The fallout of the incident led to the AMP crew being kicked out of their penthouse in New York City.
Roberto Gonzalez and friends will have to find another place to live if they want to keep streaming from New York.
Fanum is a popular live streamer and content creator on Twitch and boasts over two million followers on Twitch.
