“Officers were attacked, we were crushed,” he said. “I personally observed young people having panic attacks, anxiety attacks. People were suffering out here.”

In total there were around 65 people arrested, with at least 30 of them being unruly kids who didn’t hesitate to taunt police and throw things at them, stand on top of parked cars and climbing scaffolding. The event –which was “unpermitted” and “not sanctioned” — was set to begin at 4 pm, but by 3 pm the park has been overtaken by his fans, which are mostly kids. “I had thousands of kids out there, I needed thousands of parents,” Maddrey said according to WABC. “When it gets to the point where it’s disorderly, we want the parents to come and take control.” As the vehicle Kai Cenat was believed to be inside of fled the scene, kids were clinging to the side of the truck and fell to ground. Cenat is a New York native most known for live streaming on Twitch and comedic YouTube content. As his fame grew –alongside fellow New York Youtuber Fanum– he began to have celebrities on his stream like 21 Savage, Rich Paul, and Lil Baby.
