Many of you have sent this story my way, but I had to think about it before sharing. A Twitch streamer by the name of Rickeybot was playing Pokemon GO and sharing the experience with his fans. Sadly, the evening ended quite badly as he got robbed and assaulted live on camera.

The good in all of this is that the robber can be clearly seen on camera. After assaulting the streamer, he walks off with his phone and attempts to wipe it clean. This happens while Rickeybot's fans are still watching and they are trying to reach out to the hurt Twitch user.

Rickeybot reported the crime and then went straight to the hospital. According to him, his jaw ended up quite messy. You can find a video of the incident here below. If you feel the need to send Rickeybot your support, you can find his Twitter right here!
