Actor Ned Luke continues to battle the fools who send the police to his door during the stream. But now even the police are used to it.
One would think that the trend of anonymously sending the police or special forces to the door of streamers has gone out of style. Unfortunately, this is not the case, as shown by another case of swatting by Ned Luke, the actor who played Michael de Santa from GTA 5.
Ned Luke regularly streams and communicates with his fans, but someone constantly tries to spoil it by falsely reporting a crime to the local police at the address where Ned Luke lives. In the case of Ned Luke, the swatting started at the end of 2023 and the police came to his door at least eight times.
On the most recent swatting case, on 12/23, when Luke was streaming with fellow actor Rob Wiethoff (RDR’s John Marston), the police came to investigate, assuming it was a false tip. It’s not the first time, but they still have to respond. The whole thing went off without a hitch and Ned Luke instead wished the officers who took to the field a Merry Christmas. I guess it will work as a good tactic and the perpetrators of swatting will lose interest when they see that their attempts to interrupt the stream are no longer successful.
