What Happened During the Stream

Footage from the event shows Xena and other participants allegedly firing paintballs at strangers on the Ann and Roy Butler Hike and Bike Trail. At one point, she reportedly hit a woman on the thigh.

Past Controversies

This isn’t the first time Xena The Witch has faced trouble on Kick. In 2024, she was temporarily banned for three days after allegedly holding a South Korean streamer during a livestream and engaging in violent behavior.

Public Reaction and Safety Concerns

While some fans defended Xena’s actions as part of the scavenger hunt, many criticized her for reckless behavior and for dismissing the impact on bystanders. The use of paintball guns in public parks has also drawn scrutiny, with questions raised about participant safety and the legality of such activities.

As of now, it’s unclear if Kick will take further action against the streamer or if she will face additional legal consequences following her arrest.
