Twitch Star MeltIsLIVE Appears to Spin Out in 3-Vehicle Crash During Alleged Livestream

MeltIsLIVE (Jalen Melton), 24, appears to have been involved in a three-vehicle crash during an apparent livestream on Nov. 30 on Atlanta's I-75/85. Police say no critical injuries were reported and that a total of three vehicles were involved. Fellow creator HyyJoe posted video from the scene indicating those involved were walking and talking. Melton's Twitch channel later showed a temporary suspension notice; a full police report is pending.

Twitch streamer MeltIsLIVE (Jalen Melton), 24, appeared to lose control of his vehicle during an apparent livestream in the early hours of Sunday, Nov. 30, in Atlanta.

Circulating footage posted to X shows Melton driving with several passengers—reports indicate about four others—when his car collided with another vehicle and spun out. A spokesperson for the Atlanta Police Department confirmed that three vehicles were involved in the crash on the I-75/85 connector at roughly 3:01 a.m. and that "no critical injuries were reported".

HyyJoe, a fellow creator who drove past the scene, told viewers: "Everybody's walking. Everybody's talking." He later reposted the clip to his Instagram Stories with the caption, "Shi crazy 🙏🏾🤦🏾‍♂️."

After the incident, Melton's Twitch channel—which attracted thousands of followers—appeared to be temporarily unavailable, showing a message that the channel was suspended for a violation of Twitch's Community Guidelines or Terms of Service. It is unclear whether that notice is directly related to the crash; the platform has not publicly linked the two.

The Atlanta Police Department said a full incident report has not yet been finalized. Representatives for Melton did not respond to requests for comment at the time of reporting. Updates may follow as authorities and the platform provide further information.
