The actor who played Michael in GTA 5 got swatted live on stream
Ned Luke, who played Michael De Santa in Grand Theft Auto 5, fell victim to swatting—during a GTA Online stream, police officers arrived at his place. Initially, the actor received a call, and subsequently saw the police near his home, prompting him to urgently end the live broadcast.
It is presumed that Ned was targeted by a fan of GTA 5. It's likely the prankster obtained the actor's address through leaked IP addresses of GTA Online players.
After the stream, Ned posted a picture with a smiling emoji on Twitter.
As a reminder, a full announcement for Grand Theft Auto 6 is scheduled for December, where developers have promised to showcase a trailer for the long-awaited game. An exact date has not been provided, but there are speculations online that the video will be presented at The Game Awards 2023.
