Twitch viewers rang up the local police & reported him & he has since been charged with Assault & has been told to leave
the home where he , his GF & his two young children live.

In a sign of gaming addiction he says. "Can you not? I said I'll be out soon," he yells, then gets up from his chair in front of the monitor.
"No computer, I'm sick of this shit," a woman's voice is heard to respond.
The man disappears from the screen, and the sound of a slap is heard, followed by crying.

"You hear that, all you people there? He just hit me in the face."
More arguing ensues, and the man is seen to get back up from his chair. He cocks his arm, then appears to hit something off camera.
The woman is sobbing, and what sounds like a small child also starts to cry.
In a second video, the confrontation continues.
"I hope all of you people know that I'm pregnant and he just bashed me," the woman says.
"F--- off. I will be out soon, you dog. You don't pay the f---ing bills," the man responds, before continuing with the game.
He then gets up from his chair again, which is followed by a protracted wail and sobbbing.
"Get out of my f---ing life," he says and sits down to play again.
When the man gets up again, more screams are heard from off camera from both a woman and a child, who yells, "Daddy, daddy
The Sad , Sad world of gaming addiction.
While I never condone Assault, would this have occurred if he was not addicted to the game Fortnite.

I believe Gaming addiction is seen as mental health issue now. Maybe he can use that as an excuse to get him of the Assault charge.
