An American streamer has been banned from Kick after apparently running someome over with his car during a broadcast.
Footage shared by Clavicular, whose real name is Braden, shared on December 24 showed an individual lying in front of the windshield of his car.
A person off-camera can be heard telling him to ‘start driving’, after which the driver appears to move forward over the individual.
The streamer then said: ‘Is he dead? Hopefully.’
Shortly after the footage went round social media, Clavicular’s Kick channel became unavailable.
In further footage, he was seen speaking to an individual wearing a reflective safety jacket.
He was heard claiming he acted out of self-defence: ‘You saw that? Bro, they were surrounding our car. Yeah, exactly, I can’t see s**t. Well, that’s why… when you’re afraid… well, I don’t know what’s going on.’
He alleged that people around the vehicle were armed, saying he could see ‘a pistol’ through clothing.

So far, the streamer has not issued a public statement on the matter, and no further details have been released regarding the person involved in the incident.
Kick has long had a reputation of hosting extreme content. Earlier this year, French prosecutors opened an investigation into the Australian streaming platform after an online star died on camera following ‘ten days of torture and humiliation’.
The probe will examine whether Kick ‘knowingly’ broadcast ‘videos of deliberate attacks on personal integrity,’ Paris prosecutor Laure Beccuau said, after the death of Raphael Graven.
The 46-year-old Frenchman had appeared in live shows on the platform in which he was abused or humiliated.
In a separate announcement, France’s minister for digital affairs, Clara Chappaz, said the government would sue the platform for ‘negligence’ over its failure to block ‘dangerous content’.
It comes as the grim studio where live ‘trash’ streamer Jean Pormanove died after being humiliated and tortured live on air for 12 dayswas revealed.
Set on an industrial estate, nestled between a builder’s merchant and courier firm, the studio was where Pormanove – real name Raphael Graven – spent most of his life including his tragic final hours.
Slapped, punched, spat on, splattered with water and humiliated, the 46-year-old former solider, met a horrific end as his so called ‘friends’ abused him continuously all for clicks and money on the streaming platform Kick.
