The well-known Mexican influencer was arrested in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
Footage of his arrest is circulating on social media. The videos show the YouTuber being taken into custody and escorted by public security officers.
The videos, shared through the Alertas Mundial en X account, capture the moment when the influencer is escorted by at least three officers towards an exit of the transportation system.
The arrest sparked an outpouring of comments and speculations among his followers and the general public.
Until now, Dominican authorities have not issued an official statement detailing the specific reasons for the arrest.
However, witnesses at the scene indicated that the YouTuber was detained for filming videos for commercial purposes without the necessary permission.
According to the Santo Domingo metro regulations, filming for purposes other than personal is prohibited. Prior authorization from the transportation authority is required for commercial filming.
The User Manual of the Santo Domingo Metro and Cable Car Services clearly states that the capture and recording of images and sound in the metro facilities are prohibited for commercial purposes unless the corresponding written authorization is obtained.
This regulation aims to maintain order and passenger tranquility in public transportation.
The detention of the influencer sparked divided opinions on social media.
Some believe the arrest serves as a lesson on the importance of respecting local laws. Others, however, think that the authorities' actions were disproportionate.
