Pei Chung, a food influencer at the centre of a sensational dine-and-dash scandal in Brooklyn, has been evicted from her luxury apartment while jailed on theft charges.
The eviction underscores a dramatic fall from digital fame to real-life consequences. In a swift legal move, city officials changed the locks on her Williamsburg residence, leaving her personal belongings inside and securing the landlord's claim amid allegations of nearly £32,000 ($40,000) in unpaid rent. The eviction follows a criminal case in which she faces multiple charges for allegedly dining at high-end restaurants, posting lavish meal photos on social media, and walking out without paying.
