Miley Cyrus SWATted — Again
The Friday Night Celebrity SWATting has become so common as to be almost expected. Last night’s was different, though, in that it involved a repeat victim:
Miley Cyrus had already fallen victim to swatting but now the star has been unfortunate enough to have to go through the ordeal for a second time.
According to TMZ, the 20-year-old singer and actress was swatted once again on Friday night when police received a 911 call from a female claiming to be calling from her closet and reporting shots fired in her home.
Authorities arrived and quickly determined that the call was not real.
I’ll update with the roll call of the SWATted later.
UPDATE: The roll call of the SWATted: Miley Cyrus (again); Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom; Anderson Cooper; Magic Johnson; Mike Rogers; Wolf Blitzer; Ted Lieu; Erik Rush; Ryan Seacrest; Russell Brand; Selena Gomez; Justin Timberlake; Rihanna; Sean Combs; Chris Brown; Tom Cruise; Paris Hilton; Clint Eastwood; Brian Krebs; the Jenners and Kardashians; Justin Bieber; Miley Cyrus; Ashton Kutcher; Simon Cowell; Aaron Walker; Erick Erickson; Mike Stack; and me.
That nasty Theodore Rall person is probably laughing about it.
Elephant Stone (bcf0e3) — 5/18/2013 @ 7:13 pmErr, no, unfortunately he believes nonsense like this, from the linked article: “Those caught for swatting are arrested and brought up on criminal charges, even felony charges if someone if [sic] hurt or killed due to the false emergency call.” Name one, Daily Mail.
