The person who swatted Ned Luke, the voice actor of Michael in GTA V, has been sentenced to four years in prison

Ned Luke has turned his GTA 5 fame into a lucrative side hustle, often playing Rockstar titles, including GTA 5, on stream.

The voice actor has been swatted several times, with armed police showing up his door, such as one incident on Thanksgiving 2023.

‘Swatting’ refers to the act of someone filing a false report with law enforcement, claiming there is some type of emergency at a streamer’s address. The goal is to elicit a police response from the SWAT team to see the incident unfold on their target’s live broadcast. 

Luke was spending an afternoon playing the GTA 5 with his community when he received a phone call. Shortly afterward, he announced that he had to end the stream, saying he had been swatted.

The person responsible was eventually caught, and on June 2, 2026, Nuke issued a bold response to his tormentor
