ChudTheBuilder dragged into shocking Tennessee courthouse shooting as alleged racist altercation turns violent suddenly

Streamer Dalton Eatherly, better known online as ChudTheBuilder, was reportedly involved in a shooting incident outside a courthouse in Clarksville, Tennessee, on Wednesday afternoon. Early reports shared across social media claimed that a man allegedly confronted the streamer before a gun accidentally went off during the situation. According to those reports, the bullet reportedly grazed ChudTheBuilder’s body. However, police have not officially confirmed what exactly happened, and many details are still unclear. So far, the Clarksville Police Department has not released an official statement about the shooting or the alleged attack. Authorities have also not confirmed whether anyone else was injured during the incident. Because of that, several claims currently spreading online remain unverified.

The story quickly gained attention online after popular X account FearBuck shared updates about the situation. The account claimed the incident may have started after an argument involving racist remarks. According to the post, ChudTheBuilder allegedly told another man he was going to “chimp out,” which reportedly led to the man punching him in the face. FearBuck then claimed the streamer accidentally fired the gun during the confrontation.
