<\/section>\n

Grand Theft Auto 5<\/a> actor Ned Luke has celebrated the sentencing of an online swatter who will now serve four years in jail.<\/p>\n

Luke, who played Michael De Santa in Rockstar’s blockbuster, regularly streams himself playing GTA Online \u2014 and has fallen victim to swatting attempts numerous times. <\/p>\n

The practice of hoax calling the police to turn up at a streamer’s address while they’re on camera \u2014 usually with a claim of violence to provoke an armed response \u2014 has sadly become prevelant, and evidence exists<\/a> of Luke being swatted on at least four occaisons following a leak of his personal address.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

Now, however, progress has clearly been made in catching those responsible. In a post<\/a> on X\/Twitter, Luke shared a letter from the U.S. Department of Justice confirming that at least one perpetrator had now been sentenced \u2014 to “incarceration of four years followed by supervised release of three years,” plus a $200 fine.<\/p>\n

“Don’t drop the soap in the shower douchebag,” Luke commented. “Won’t be swatting anyone anytime soon… and they’re coming for the ones he ratted out as well.” He signed off his post with five star emoji, a nod to GTA’s highest wanted level.<\/p>\n

Luke has now been swatted so often that a recent visit by the police in December 2025 saw two officers turning up knowing full well they were likely attending a hoax call. Footage of the incident shows them and Luke wishing each other a merry Christmas, before Luke returns to playing GTA 5.<\/p>\n

By sharing news of the swatter’s sentencing, Luke likely hopes to deter others from doing similar. Here’s hoping he has a quieter time streaming GTA 6<\/a>, which is due on November 19.<\/p>\n
