Bahamian conspiracy theorist Sylvens Metayer is kind of like Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones, constantly ranting about a corrupt and unaccountable “Deep State” targeting him for his work exposing their atrocities… except for the part where shadowy forces probably are actually targeting the guy considering at least two bullets were fired into his apartment in Hollywood, Florida on Monday, striking him in the foot and face while he was streaming to fans, the Miami Herald reports.
“Hey, I got shot… I have been shot in the face,” Metayer said on the livestream after the bullets had crashed through the window. Metayer’s condition is unknown but it appeared the facial wound was relatively minor as he was still able to speak and see while a woman in the apartment called 911. The video is a little too dark to tell where he was hit but it seemed to be his left cheek.
Anyway, if the shooting was random local bullshit it would have been a hell of a coincidence considering that Metayer had been streaming for an hour at that point so anyone watching would have known he was at home and that – importantly – it came just days after he had obtained and shared audio recordings of Royal Bahamas Police Force Chief Superintendent Michael Johnson appearing to accept a bribe from an unnamed wanted criminal. Johnson’s boss, Bahamas Police Commissioner Clayton Fernander, this week announced an investigation into the audio. He should probably also look into who shot Metayer, see if maybe there’s a connection.
