YouTuber Jack Doherty was arrested in Miami after he was found with illegal drugs.
Doherty, 22, was detained around 9am on Saturday after being found in possession of a controlled substance, marijuana, and resisting an officer without violence to his person, according to records viewed by the Daily Mail.
The controlled substance he had on him was amphetamine, which is an ADHD medication. He was also found with less than 20mg of weed. Recreational marijuana is illegal in Florida.
He was booked into the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in Miami on a $3,500 bond, which he has not posted.
It is unclear what led up to his arrest, but he was livestreaming on the platform Parti last night and posted footage of himself on a yacht.
The YouTuber gained traction in 2017 for his prank and stunt videos.
The Daily Mail has reached out to the Miami Police Department and Doherty's management for comment.
In 2024, Doherty hit headlines after crashing a $300,000 McLaren, leaving his friend covered in blood in a horrific incident which went viral.
He was live-streaming on Kick and could be seen driving with one hand and glancing down at his phone as he drove at high speed in torrential rain before he lost control of the supercar.
The custom wrapped McLaren 570S skidded across the wet highway in Miami before careering into the metal roadside barrier, ripping off the bonnet and destroying the entire front half of the car.
Doherty escaped unscathed but his friend Michael David, who was sitting in the passenger seat, could be seen with blood streaming down his face and had to be taken to hospital.
But not before Doherty handed him the camera and said: 'Michael, here. Film on that phone too.'
Doherty has since been banned from streaming platform Kick for violating safety guidelines.
He also received backlash last year for allegedly antagonizing people for the sake of engaging content before running to hide behind his security guards to prevent the people he was provoking from touching him.
In some videos, he could be seen squaring up to strangers and having his security guard step in as soon as the person looked as if they were going to retaliate.
He stood behind a security guard, who was much larger than him, and mocked the person by making comments such as: "What are you gonna do?"'
Doherty and his bodyguard, Kane Kongg, were later served legal papers and were being sued by a man who claimed he was punched by Kongg - whose legal name is Justin Goslee.
