[jwplayer mgzBNoPb] Boasting well over 18 million subscribers on YouTube, it comes as little surprise that Dobrik receives the occasional unwanted visitor at his house, which has happened several times before. However, this latest incident took a dark turn, as revealed during an episode of Dobrik and Jason Nash\u2019s \u2018VIEWS\u2019 podcast in early October where the star revealed one viewer took things a little too far. During the episode, Dobrik explained that the fan \u2014 a young woman in her \u201cearly twenties\u201d \u2014 had sat outside of his home on the street curb for two days before banging on the door, yelling his name. After Dobrik went outside to investigate, he reported that the viewer suffered from appeared to be a \u201cpanic attack\u201d and quickly shouted \u201cNevermind, you can\u2019t help me,\u201d before \u201cstorming\u201d out of his driveway. Understandably concerned, Dobrik and company followed the woman, to no avail \u2014 but a day later, a neighbor texted the YouTuber that someone had keyed his assistant, Natalie\u2019s, Ford Bronco. The vehicle (pictured below) was etched with symbols, according to Dobrik, which included his name written in odd lettering. https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B5WU4wLA2kd\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Upon investigating the car, David found that the woman was nearby, claiming she wanted to \u201capologize\u201d \u2014 but quickly became what he described as \u201cscary,\u201d prompting him to call law enforcement for help in case things got sticky. Luckily, the star was adamant that he didn\u2019t want to \u201cget her in trouble\u201d but instead wanted her to \u201cget help,\u201d to which she agreed. While waiting on the police to arrive, Dobrik asked the woman why she\u2019d stalked him, to which she replied: \u201cHe told me to just go for it.\u201d As for who \u201che\u201d was? Dobrik claimed she said it was \u201cthe guy inside my head,\u201d who told her that \u201cif I came here, everything would be answered.\u201d Thankfully, the police were \u201csuper f**king nice\u201d when they arrived and took the woman to a hospital, prompting a hilarious chat with an officer who advised Dobrik to change his name on social media \u2014 something he replied he was a \u201clittle late\u201d for. While this is far from the first time an internet celebrity has been outright stalked, it\u2019s good to know that this situation ended peacefully, with Dobrik understanding that his stalker didn\u2019t have bad intentions, but merely needed help.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>David Dobrik calls police after \u201cscary\u201d stalker keys his assistant\u2019s car YouTube \/ Instagram: David DobrikYouTube star David Dobrik is one of the internet\u2019s most famous content creators \u2014 but living in the limelight isn\u2019t always a cake walk, as he discovered after one of his viewers began stalking his home.
