A viewer allegedly set fire to a Twitch streamer’s automobile, leaving her petrified.
Kylee Carter, better known as Justfoxii, shared the terrifying news on Twitter today (June 14), tweeting a picture of the blaze next to a picture of the wreckage of her Jaguar F-Type.
She tweeted: “A twitch viewer came to my house and set my car on fire..”
The 25-year-old gamer then uploaded a video to YouTube to explain everything to his followers.
“I guess I’ll start off by saying the person who did this to me is arrested and the police are handling everything and that’s honestly the most important thing.”
Kylee was on holiday about two weeks ago when her mum called her at around 2am to deliver the bad news.
She said: “She was crying and I knew something really bad had happened and she said, ‘Someone caught your car on fire. I’m so sorry.'”
The streamer said that her mother called the police right away, and they were able to apprehend the suspected offender thanks to CCTV footage from the family’s Ohio home.
“I also forgot to mention [the person who allegedly started the fire] travelled around 700 miles to come and do this to me which makes it so much worse in my opinion,” she claimed.
“I saw my car in flames,” she added. “My car that I worked so hard for just burned and for somebody to take that [from] me is very hurtful and I will never be able to understand that.”
Kylee said fortunately her mum and pets were inside the house at the time of the blaze and were thankfully unharmed.
She added: “We’re all traumatised in ways that I would never be able to describe, but I’m glad everybody is safe and that’s the most important thing to me.”
Fans were quick to chime in with their well-wishes following the scary incident, with one writing: “That’s so scary and heartbreaking. I’m glad your family and you are okay physically, but I can’t imagine the emotional trauma that must have left on you. This is not acceptable whatsoever. People who go to these extremes deserve to burn. Sending you positive thoughts”
Meanwhile another added: “Sorry this happened to you…Hope you recover from this…”
This isn’t the first time something like this has reportedly happened to Kylee – the social media star claimed she had been dealing with “stalker-type things” for some time prior to the incident.
“My life has honestly been insane for the past year [or] year and a half,” she said.
“I was dealing with other issues for a long time, like stalker-type things. That’s obviously been very draining for me as you can imagine.”
