Jack Doherty is facing a lawsuit for assault and battery after a man claimed that Doherty and another individual physically assaulted him at a pre-Halloween event.
According to recently obtained court documents by TMZ, a man named Chase Gardella is suing YouTuber and bodyguard Kane Kongg (real name Justin Goslee) for an incident that was apparently captured on video, showing Kongg punching an individual directly in the face.
In a prior incident back in October, Jack posted a clip from a party hosted by YouTuber Corinna Kopf, which appeared to depict him involved in a confrontation with several attendees. In the clip, Kane is seen punching an individual who subsequently falls hard onto the brick pathway beneath.
Gardella alleges that he was present at the Halloween party on October 29 and was conversing with Jack and Kane around 12:30 AM. As per the documents, Jack instigated a physical altercation by saying, “We’re gonna fight. Us two versus you two, alright go,” which corresponds to the footage on YouTube. Shortly after, Chase claims that Kongg assaulted him.
Chase states that he did not consent to the physical assault and sustained injuries to his head, neck, and face as a result of the fall. Gardella also claims that Jack has posted several videos on his YouTube channel in which his bodyguards intimidate individuals who react negatively to his pranks.
He further alleges that Goslee has a history of legal issues related to physical assaults. It was previously reported that he was accused of knocking out a woman while working as a security personnel for DaBaby.
