Chaos broke out after closing time at the Shops at Rivercenter mall in San Antonio on August 2, 2025. What started as a viral after-hours hide-and-seek livestream by the AMP collective quickly turned into physical confrontations, arrests, and now a multimillion-dollar civil lawsuit.
Mall security officer Don White has filed a civil lawsuit in Texas state district court seeking more than $1 million in damages. The suit names AMP Entertainment, streamer Kai Cenat, Duke Dennis, producer Henry Wolf, content manager Joshua Pujols, and AMP security team member Lavoune Clarke. White alleges Clarke punched him in the mouth during a confrontation after mall security ordered the group to leave. He claims the incident required emergency room treatment and caused ongoing medical costs, pain, suffering, and lost earnings.
AMP was in San Antonio for its “30 Days of Summer” streaming event, staying at NBA legend Tony Parker’s estate and filming daily content. The group had limited permission to film in specific areas of the downtown River Walk mall but allegedly continued livestreaming hide-and-seek after the mall closed around 10 p.m.
Security, including White, directed participants to exit. Police responded to the disturbance. Duke Dennis (Denzel Shaquille Dennis) allegedly refused to leave, leading to his arrest for criminal trespassing and evading arrest. Lavoune Clarke allegedly interfered during the chaos. White claims Clarke punched him in the mouth amid the confrontation. Video clips from the livestream showed Dennis in handcuffs on the mall floor while others filmed from above.
The civil lawsuit, filed in June 2026, accuses the defendants of exceeding filming permissions, failing to supervise the event, and contributing to the conditions that led to White’s injuries. Clarke’s attorney, Zachary Green, stated:
“Mr. Clarke has and continues to maintain his innocence pertaining to these claims of wrongdoing.”
After finishing a pretrial diversion course, Duke Dennis had his minor charges dropped. Facing unresolved serious accusations, Clarke is under legal scrutiny for attacking an officer twice plus threatening a guard once. His trial is scheduled for September 2026. He posted bond and denies the allegations.
Out of nowhere, loud livestream parties started clashing with place regulations and basic safety needs. When big-name creators host gatherings, eyes tune in from everywhere yet guards get overwhelmed, pathways clog up fast. That giveaway by Kai Cenat back in 2023? Chaos spilled into streets, police stepped in, legal steps followed though things eventually settled down quiet-like.
Who takes responsibility when creators blur work and personal time? That’s what this situation puts front and center. Lines get fuzzy late at night. Organizers might find themselves on shaky ground, along with their crew. The risks aren’t just personal they ripple through everyone involved.
Still unfolding, the situation hinges on footage captured during the live broadcast and officer recordings. What spreads fast online can carry heavy consequences offline.
