Cops Arrest Content Creator Arrested for Allegedly Pointing Gun at Partner & Child
A content creator was arrested in Parañaque for allegedly mistreating and pointing a gun at his partner and child.
Recently, the vlogger Yoshiyuki Kobayashi, known online as “Lakas Tama,” has been arrested in Parañaque after his partner, Jasmin Supetran, filed a complaint accusing him of mistreatment. Kobayashi, who gained popularity through his vlogs and live streams, was detained after he allegedly threatened her and their six-month-old baby with a gun.
Before his arrest, Kobayashi had hinted in a live stream that he would be revealing certain personal information, including details about his relationship. However, the livestream never aired as authorities intervened, taking him into custody.
Supetran later informed the police that Kobayashi had pointed a firearm at both her and their infant. Following his arrest, authorities discovered that the content creator was in possession of unlicensed firearms.
Kobayashi now faces multiple charges, including grave threats, violation of the gun ban, and violations under the Women and Children’s Act (RA 9262) and the Comprehensive Firearms and Ammunition Regulation Act (RA 10591).
“LakasTama was arrested not because he was setup by the wife & police, but because tinutukan niya ng bar*l sa ulo yung anak niyang 6 months old. Nasa akin ang mismong video. So please, stop the bullshit. Stop bashing the wife. He deserve makulong,” said Xian Gaza.
Despite his online fame, which started during his time in Japan where he livestreamed street fights and other controversial activities, Kobayashi decided to return to the Philippines. His arrest has sparked reactions from the online community, with some defending him and others criticizing his actions.
Supetran, who has expressed the emotional toll the situation has had on her, urged people to understand her perspective before commenting on the matter.
As of this writing, Kobayashi has not publicly addressed his arrest or what his next steps will be. His case remains under investigation.
