Twitch Streamer Annoying Faces Armed Robbery of $100,000 Diamond Chain in IRL Stream
Annoying, known for his NBA 2K content, has gained a substantial following on both YouTube and Twitch. More recently, he has shifted his focus towards IRL streaming, providing viewers with a glimpse into his everyday life.
During the ill-fated stream, Annoying and his friends were seated in a vehicle, enjoying music and engaging in light-hearted banter. However, the atmosphere took a sudden dark turn as an unknown individual, dressed in grey with a hood and mask concealing their identity, approached the open car door, brandishing a firearm at Cap.
In a tense moment, the assailant demanded, “Let’s go, give me everything,” as they entered the vehicle. The stream abruptly cuts to black, leaving behind a backdrop of indiscernible sounds amid the chaos.
Amid the turmoil, one voice can be heard urgently instructing, “Close the door, close the f*cking door,” while another shouts, “Chill bro chill.” Eventually, the group managed to drive away from the scene, avoiding further harm.
Cap later provided additional details about the incident on his Twitter account, assuring his followers, “Just me vs 3 guns, I’m cool though don’t worry.” He went on to emphasize the importance of vigilance, stating, “Prime example of why I always move alone.”
The audacious thieves took to social media to flaunt their ill-gotten gains, showcasing the stolen jewelry. They brazenly demanded a staggering $100,000 as ransom for the return of the diamond chain.
