Shortly after the incident, videos began surfacing on TikTok detailing the reported altercation between Alex and Phoenix, Arizona, police officers.

“Officers went to break up a group that was doing doughnuts in the street but a red Corvette took off. That driver led Mesa police, DPS, and Phoenix police on a chase from the east to the west valley,” the video said.

It went on to explain that the driver of the Corvette made contact with a police cruiser before it was eventually disabled by spike strips in Pheonix.

Another upload to TikTok shows the influencer walking out of his house backward before being placed in handcuffs by a Phoenix police officer.

This isn’t the first time a popular TikToker has gotten in trouble with the local police in recent months either. Back in October, QCP was reportedly arrested after driving a stolen U-Haul truck around Los Angeles.

In February 2023, Mormon influencer Frankie Taylor Paul was arrested for alleged domestic violence.
