A Russian-American streamer who visited the Philippines was facing possible charges for his public pranks along the areas of Bonifacio Global City in Taguig and in Boracay Island.
In a video published on social media by Net Klips, Vitaly Zdorovetskiy, owner of the streaming channel VitalyzdTv, was seen performing pranks on innocent residents and employees of BGC.
One of Zdorovetskiy’s victims was a woman whom he threatened to rob, and offered her money, but when she refused, the streamer started to mock her for wearing a mask.
“You liberal f*ck,” the streamer told the woman.
Another incident showed Zdorovetskiy stealing the cap of a security guard in one of BGC’s malls.
When the security guard tried to approach him, the streamer could be heard trying to tease the officer.
Meanwhile, the Bureau of Immigration (BI) reminded tourists like Zdorovetskiy to respect the laws of the Philippines.
The agency also hinted that they were already investigating the streamer, but refused to give more information about their next step.
Zdorovetskiy was already notorious in some of the countries he visited.
He was already put behind bars in Egypt for climbing the Pyramids of Giza and invading a football match in Brazil in 2014.
