JiDion gets arrested while streaming, asks police officer to pose for a thumbnail Instagram: jidion_Days after JiDion revealed he was wanted for criminal trespassing in Houston, the social media celeb has now been arrested. Streaming the moment it all went down, he even asked the police officer handcuffing him to pose for a thumbnail. Six days ago YouTube star JiDion shared details on the aftermath of his latest prank video. While filming in Houston, his antics resulted in a warrant being issued for his arrest in the city as a result of criminal trespassing. Now on April 16, the divisive content creator has been tracked down and detained. Having been pulled over while driving through the area, JiDion began streaming on Instagram to document his arrest. \u201cI\u2019m about to go to jail,\u201d he said to more than 25,000 live viewers tuned in. \u201cCan you call Lawyer Mark? I haven\u2019t paid off my warrant yet. It\u2019s f***ing ridiculous because I could have went yesterday but I wanted to make a video for you guys.\u201d Stepping out of the vehicle as requested, the officer on duty reminded JiDion of his \u201cactive warrant\u201d in the Harris County region of Texas. \u201cI was just going to give you a warning,\u201d he continued, \u201cbut they want to place a hold, so you\u2019re going to have to come with me.\u201d Then being asked to \u201cput [his] phone in [his] pocket,\u201d the officer proceeded to handcuff JiDion before transporting him to the nearest holding facility. However, before the cuffs were locked in, the content creator took the opportunity to well, make some more content. \u201cIs it cool if I get a thumbnail?\u201d JiDion asked, before placing his phone down at the right angle to do just that. While the cuffs were placed around his wrists, he took the time to pose in multiple positions, many with the typical \u2018shocked\u2019 YouTube thumbnail reaction, all with the officer and the handcuffs both in frame. \u201cCan you do me a favor?\u201d he asked again, now firmly handcuffed, to which the officer obliged. \u201cAlright chat, I\u2019m going to jail. See you boys later,\u201d JiDion said before ending his Instagram broadcast. At the time of writing, it\u2019s unclear where JiDion is being detained, nor for how long. But given his manager, Mams Taylor, was present during the stream, including when he asked to call their lawyer, there\u2019s little doubt the issue will be rectified shortly. After paying off the undisclosed amount for the arrest warrant, JiDion should once again be a free man and avoid any real jail time. So it\u2019s safe to expect the content creator back online in a matter of hours, but we\u2019ll keep you posted here as any further details emerge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
