TheQuartering [12/6/2022]

According to BoundingIntoComics:

YouTubers Jeremy “TheQuartering” Hambly and Tim Pool were both reportedly subject to separate but related SWATting attempts on Tuesday night, with the former alleging that he was even handcuffed and thrown to the ground by responding officers.

Occurring on the evening of June 9th, the first of the two false SWAT calls was leveled towards Pool during his hosting of his show, Timcast IRL.

As seen live on YouTube, roughly an hour and twenty minutes into the episode two assumed members of Pool’s staff entered his studio to inform him, fellow hosts Ian Crossland, Luke Rudkowski, and Lydia Leitermann, as well as that night’s special guest, Virginia-based U.S. Congressional hopeful Tommy Altman, that they had to “evacuate the building”.

Though many were left confused by Pool and company’s abrupt exit, unbeknownst to many was the fact that a short while later, Hambly was also on the receiving end of a false SWAT call.

Approximately two hours after Pool’s evacuation, Hambly took to Twitter to report, “Swat team just left my house. Someone texted them that I murdered my wife with a ‘high power rifle’ and was going to kill myself. They deployed the SWAT team for an anonymous text. They all KNEW it was a SWAT too. Hilarious.”

“100% dead serious,” he assured his followers. “You’ll be able to listen to the radio calls online but no f—ing body cams. Total bummer.”

In response to fellow Twitter user @PimpMasterTYoda1 joking that he should have given “all the nice officers some free coffee for having to go out to your house,” a reference to the YouTuber’s recent coffee-bean retail endeavors, Hambly asserted “No” before proceeding to recall a particular detail about the SWAT team’s handling of the call.

“I supposedly murdered my wife,” he explained. “The cops were sitting in my driveway when dispatch called me. MY F—ING WIFE ANSWERED THE PHONE.”

“They should of stood down at that moment,” he stated. “Not handcuff me and make me lay in the wet grass and scare the shit out of my wife”
