YouTuber, musician, and BBC star, Felipe "Yung Filly" was taken into custody in Brisbane on October 8, 2024, and subsequently transferred to Perth. The arrest is connected to allegations of sexually assaulting a woman in her 20s in his hotel room following a performance in a Perth suburb on September 28, 2024. Since then, he has been granted bail and is required to visit the authorities regularly.

On October 12, a video of the YouTuber was seen in public while making a routine visit to the police station, as his case mandates. In the video, Filly can be seen stepping outside a van and jogging briskly through the new reporters and cameras surrounding him to get into the station.

Fans on X reacted to the sighting and commented on the video, with some, like @intellectual245, speaking about the musician's movement:

"Nah why my man running like a supervillain..."

@ldw_97 found the way Filly ran to be humorous:

"That run is hilarious 🤣"

Others, like @IsmaatM, said the reporters could've shown more courtesy:

"These reporters should follow some basic ethics of personal space. Irrespective of the situation."

@KardellGreen claimed that Young Filly wasn't as overwhelmed by the crowd:

"Swarmed is a strong word when I count about 7 people including the person recording."

Since Young Filly's case is so sensitive, he chooses not to speak on the details, while trying to make his public appearances scarce.


What are the latest updates on the Yung Filly case?

Following his arrest in Brisbane, Yung Filly was extradited to Perth, where he appeared in court on October 10, 2024. He was granted bail despite the prosecution's concerns about his potential flight risk and ability to influence witnesses due to his large online following.

Yung Filly's bail conditions include a personal bond of AUD 100,000 and a ban on contacting the alleged victim or posting about the case on social media. His next court appearance is scheduled for December 19, 2024, where further developments in the case will unfold.
