Police officers responded to a hoax emergency call at Westfield Santa Anita Mall in Southern California, rushing into a store with rifles drawn while streamers were broadcasting live.

Kick streamers Zavalahimself and Amanda Solis were live-streaming inside a Journeys store around 5 p.m. when officers entered the location. The streamers were filming with a child at the time of the police response.

The incident appears to be what is commonly known as "swatting," where false emergency reports are made to prompt an armed police response at a specific location. These hoax calls have become an increasing problem, particularly targeting online content creators and streamers.

Authorities have not released details about the nature of the false report or whether any arrests have been made in connection with the hoax call. The incident highlights ongoing security concerns at shopping centers and the risks posed by false emergency reports targeting public figures and content creators.
