On July 4, 2025, while in Newport Beach, California, Josh had one of the most intense meltdowns he ever had, even being violent toward Tony Bame during the stream. It is unknown what triggered the crashout as the stream started as it was happening, but it was worsened with trolls frybagging him. Josh's meltdown was so intense that he resisted being held back and spat on the trolls. He also got very aggressive to many people who were trying to hold him back. Tony also crashed out on Josh after he spat on them, leading him to break down. Josh was later arrested by the police. [1]

The arrest comes after Josh’s “sober week”. It is currently unknown what exactly caused Josh crash out hard, but he was arrested for assault and battery from the incident.

Background & Meltdown

Before the livestream began, an altercation occurred involving Josh and several individuals. Josh was seen striking a girl, prompting a group—including an individual identified as Fake Trump, Tony, and several others—to chase after him. They retaliated, with Josh striking the same girl again. Another girl then slapped Josh across the face, breaking his glasses, which were subsequently stomped on by the girl he had initially hit. [2]

In a separate video, Josh is seen running along the beach while biting his own hand, with Tony running after him. During the chase, Josh trips himself over Tony’s leg, causing both to fall. The moment appears as though Tony bodyslams Josh, who lands on his back and begins screaming in apparent pain. [3]

Josh was already having a meltdown when the livestream on Parti began. Within seconds, visible injuries appeared on Tony’s back, suggesting that Josh had become physically aggressive toward him. As the stream continued, Josh repeatedly complained that he couldn’t see, citing broken glasses, and began repeating several of his known catchphrases.

When a group referred to as the "frybaggers" arrived, Josh sprayed water at them. After being frybagged again, a crowd started to gather, escalating the situation into a larger scene. Josh resisted efforts to restrain him and was seen spitting at individuals nearby. This prompted Tony to lose his temper and yell at Josh, which led to Josh crying and declaring that he now hated Tony.

The situation escalated further when Josh suddenly lunged at a group of men unprovoked, attempting to attack them before being restrained. Once seated again, his meltdown intensified—he screamed repeatedly and struggled against both Tony and another individual known as "Fake Trump."

An unnamed woman approached and attempted to comfort Josh, who continued sobbing about his broken glasses. Multiple 911 calls were made, and police, fire, and medical personnel arrived on the scene shortly afterward. As emergency responders began their investigation, Josh abruptly calmed down and was ultimately arrested at the end of the stream.

The Arrest

Josh was arrested at the end of the livestream and was taken and held in jail. He was charged with assault and battery causing serious bodily injury, and was held at a bond of $25,000. He was bonded out by Grandpa Block within nine hours. [4] [5] Josh stated that he had the "most insulting" 4th of July and wants to flee the country. [5]

His hearing is set on August 15th 2025 at 08:30am at Harbor Justice Center, Newport Beach, California.[6]
