Guy "Dr Disrespect" Beahm is one of the biggest Twitch game streamers in the world, and today he was forced to end his live session of the Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 battle royale beta after what sounded like gunfire was directed at his home.

This is the second shot, someone shot yesterday, at our fucking house and someone shot again right now, connected with the house, upstairs."
