A twelve-year-old YouTube gamer has been through a whirlwind of emotion after a
swatting incident took place at his home. Welcome back to What's Trending, I'm Shira
Lazar. Be sure to like this video and subscribe for more social media news
daily. Peter Varady, who goes by Rolly
Rancher on YouTube, was streaming Fortnite when he got paired up with
YouTube gamer Cizzorz in a duo's match. Cizzorz who has over 850,000
subscribers encouraged fans to subscribe to Rolly Rancher on YouTube as well.
And sure enough, people did.
With Cizzorz help, Rolly Rancher's channel flew past
a 100,000 subscribers in just a couple of days.
Cizzorz continued to promote Peter's channel through Twitch and YouTube and
made this kid's week. Unfortunately, the notoriety brought Peter an unintended
consequence. I'm going to end my stream you now. A frightened and tearful 12-year-old
YouTube gamer after paramedics and police suddenly swarm his home. It was
probably the scariest moment of my life. A 911 call was placed in their area
saying that both Peter and his mother were going to hang themselves. Police and
paramedics rushed into their home scaring the living bejesus out of them.
When Cizzorz found out about the incident, he freaked out. He tweeted: "In 24
hours we helped a kid go from 400 subscribers on youtube to over 87,000... I
was just told that someone Swatted him tonight on his livestream. I feel so
awful. There are some terrible people in this world. The kid is only 12 years old.
I hope whoever did it, rots in a cell. The LAPD is investigating, but has not yet
identified the swatter. Whoever's doing this must think it's really funny, but
swatting is actually very dangerous. Tyler Barriss faces up to 11 years in
prison. He's charged with involuntary manslaughter after placing a call that
sent the SWAT team to the Kansas home of Andrew Finch. Finch was shot and killed
by a Wichita police officer who the department says thought Finch was
reaching to his waistband and getting something to point at police. Finch was
unarmed and uninvolved in the events that led police to his home. In
interviews, Barriss said he's been paid to make such calls in the past, but declined
to say whether he was paid to make the call
which resulted in Finch's death. He now, of course, regrets the incidents.
I hope no one ever does
it ever again. I hope, I hope it's just something that ceases to exist. And in
Baltimore in 2015, 20 year-old Tyron Dobbs was shot in the face by police
after a swatting call.
And recently in Los Angeles,
police responded to what they thought was a hostage situation at the Peninsula
Beverly Hills Hotel. It's frustrating. He won't say it, but it's frustrating to
police that the huge amount of resources. I mean, you're talking about a staff of
100 or so out here. The SWAT team, all the equipment, and a lot of fear, you know?
Parents and the kids over in Beverly Hills High School worried, all the people
in the Peninsula Hotel, they evacuated some rooms concerned as well here. This
swatting incident apparently originated from inside the hotel, not another
location. Fortunately this time, nobody was hurt. Of course it's wrong to make a
prank call that results in full police action, but hopefully this is also a
message to police to not shoot unarmed people. This whole trend is unfortunate,
but it sucks when it involves really young kids too. Who are basically going to be
scarred for the rest of their lives because of a stupid prank. So why would
someone make a swatting call especially now that we know the consequences? Let us
