NEW YORK - Chaos erupted Friday afternoon after a large crowd gathered at Manhattan's Union Square Park for livestreamer Kai Cenat's meet-and-greet and giveaway. Things spiraled out of control at around 3 p.m., when some in the crowd could be seen tearing down construction barricades and hurling objects, including throwing some objects at responding police officers. As the chaos unfolded, a vehicle, believed to have been carrying Cenat, attempted to leave. The crowd could be seen mobbing it. It moved slowly through throngs of people before eventually speeding off, with people clinging to the sides and back. At least three people could be seen tumbling off the vehicle onto the pavement as it sped away. Cenat was taken into police custody for questioning at around 5 p.m. He did not have a permit for the event or preplan it with police. Police confirmed Friday evening that Cenat will be charged with at least two counts of inciting a riot and unlawful assembly, along with a few other charges. Earlier in the day, Cenat posted on social media that he would be there in person for the giveaway. He has more than 9 million combined followers on Twitch and other social media platforms. "Once the people for the giveaway started coming out, that's when, like, things started to get out of control because people started pushing and stuff," one witness said. "They didn't even get to give away. They left right when everything happened," said one individual.
