Content Creator’s Live Stream Leads to Discovery of Missing Teen
USA – A missing teenage boy from Michigan was discovered alive recently after being spotted on a live stream by content creators in Miami, Florida. Troy Coleman had been missing for several months, and his family had feared the worst.
On July 3, 2024, American content creators FaZe Lacy and Clix were live streaming on Twitch when a shirtless man in bright green shorts approached them playfully. After the stream, Lacy received an email from Trent Coleman, claiming to be the brother of the man they had encountered. It turned out that the shirtless man was Troy, who had been missing for over two months.
Trent clarified in his message that Troy, who their family had thought was deceased, suffers from schizophrenia but is not involved with drugs. The Flint Township Police Department had previously issued a missing person announcement for Troy, describing him as 6’4” with blue eyes and a scar above his left eye.
