Kick streamer N3on experienced a swatting incident during an IRL spa stream with his crew, resulting in his bodyguard being handcuffed by the police.
N3on is well-known for his diverse range of IRL streams on the Stake-owned platform. His stream on September 10, 2024, followed this trend.
While at the spa, N3on’s bodyguard was outside wearing a ski mask, black attire, and carrying a weapon.
During the stream, officers arrived, drew their firearms on the bodyguard, and placed him in cuffs. N3on responded, “It’s swat, swat team … bro, we just got swatted, bro. I literally know every cop here by now… he’s good.”

After things settled down, a police officer explained that they received a report of a man in a ski mask who had allegedly shot someone, leading to a significant police response.
The officer noted, “So what happened was that we got a call that someone in a mask, with a gun, just shot somebody. That’s what we got. It could be a swatter,” confirming that the individual was indeed N3on’s bodyguard.
Although the situation de-escalated quickly, police continued to arrive and the bodyguard remained handcuffed. The stream continued while the police interacted with him, and N3on and his team later moved to a new location.
One officer advised N3on to notify them the next time he’s in that area, to prevent any future swatting incidents.
This was not N3on’s first experience with swatting during an IRL stream, as a similar incident occurred in January 2024 when the zoo he was visiting had to evacuate after police were called.
