Kai Cenat dodges charges over 2023 PS5 giveaway-turned-riot

Last August, streamer Kai Cenat held an unsanctioned PlayStation 5 giveaway in New York’s Union Square, which resulted in the formation of a mob and eventual riot. 

The Manhattan District Attorney’s office has finally made a decision regarding the riot, which occurred nine months ago on Aug. 4, 2023. Cenat will not face any further charges for the events that transpired in New York last summer, according to reports citing a statement from officials yesterday.
