The influencer has built a massive online presence with more than 28 million combined followers across YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram, becoming widely recognized for stunt and prank content.
Doherty previously made headlines in October 2024 after crashing his $200,000 McLaren sports car while livestreaming. A video shared at the time showed him looking down at his phone while navigating heavy rain, leading to a loss of control before the vehicle skidded across multiple lanes and struck a metal barrier. More than 185,000 people were reportedly watching his Kick stream before it was removed.
According to public records, Doherty’s bond for the current charges was set at $3,500 and has since been posted.
