Fortnite World Cup winner Bugha swatted on stream

AUG 10 2019

Kyle 'Bugha' Giersdorf, 16, who had won $3 million at the Fortnite World Cup weeks earlier, was streaming when police arrived at his Pennsylvania home. Police had received a call from someone impersonating him, claiming he had killed his father and tied up his mother. The situation was defused within about half an hour because a responding officer lived nearby and recognised him.
