People gather and cheer for Kai Cenat at a "giveaway" event announced by the popular Twitch live streamer in Union Square and the surrounding area in New York City in August 2023. Cenat announced on social media that he would be giving away video game consoles and other items, but numerous attendees were arrested in a scene that turned chaotic. Charges of inciting a riot were dropped after he agreed to pay more than $57,000 in restitution and apologize on social media, according to AP.
