Far-right Rumble streamer Nick Fuentes claims there was an attempt on his life by an armed "gunman", releases CCTV footage

Controversial Rumble streamer Nick Fuentes has claimed that there was an attempt on his life by a "would-be assassin". On December 19, 2024, the far-right influencer made several posts on X, alleging that on the preceding night (December 18), a "gunman" attempted to enter his home that was doxed earlier this year.

For those unaware, Nick Fuentes is currently facing charges of battery assault after pepper spraying feminist activist Marla Rose who had come to his house on November 27, 2024, after his address was doxed on X.

Regardless, Fuentes claims that someone — allegedly armed with a gun, crossbow, and supposed explosives — tried to kill him on December 18, 2024. In his post on X, the Rumble streamer wrote:

"Last night an armed killer made an attempt on my life at my home, which was recently doxed on this platform. The gunman carried a pistol, crossbow, and incendiary devices. I believe he intended to kill me. He is now dead. I am okay!"

Nick Fuentes also alluded to a police report, claiming that the alleged gunman was wanted in a triple homicide case and was soon shot dead by officers present on the scene:

"According to police, the would-be assassin committed a triple homicide in southern Illinois early yesterday before he arrived at my doorstep with his pistol drawn, calling my name. I am grateful to God that I am still alive today," wrore Fuentes in a subsequent post on X.

A screenshot of a police report from Berwyn PD has also been shared on social media, detailing how the police shot the suspect after he had opened fire on officers after killing two dogs.

While the report does not mention Nick Fuentes, the Rumble streamer mentioned the death of the dogs in another post and called out the practice of doxing on X:

"Tragically, the gunman broke into a neighbors home to evade police & killed two of their dogs. While heartbreaking, it could have been so unimaginably worse. God have mercy. Doxing is not a game. This nihilistic lynch mob behavior must end before anyone else is killed."

Nick Fuentes releases CCTV footage of alleged killer appearing at his door with a gun and crossbow, says he is uprooting his life and relocating

Nick Fuentes has released a couple of videos claiming that the gunman appeared at his front door. The CCTV footage shows the alleged suspect walking up to his door with a gun, a crossbow, and a backpack. The man also yells his name in the video after trying the doorbell, shouting:

"Yo, Nick!"

Nick Fuentes now plans to relocate. In a post, the Rumble streamer explained that he does not want to burden his neighbors since his house was doxed earlier this year. The far-right influencer had his address revealed on the social media platform after his post "Your body, my choice" garnered a lot of backlash on November 5, 2024.

Regardless, Fuentes says he will uproot his life, in a post on X:

"I will now have to uproot my life and relocate. While I can handle whatever comes to my front door, it is irresponsible to expect my neighbors with young families to share that burden. In the meantime I will have to contract 24 hour security to protect myself and my property."

Nick Fuentes also asked for cryptocurrency donations to help fund his 24-hour security and rebuild his studio:

"If anybody would like to contribute to defray the cost ($13,000/week) of private security and rebuilding my studio, here is a donation link. I can only accept cryptocurrency because I am banned from banking services and CC processing. Thank you. https://nicholasjfuentes.com/donate"
