Montpellier/Munich – He is lying on the ground, two men are hitting him on the head and dragging him around. Attack on Twitch star “NoWay” (626,000 followers)!
The Munich esports star and “League of Legends” player was attacked in Montpellier (France). The perpetrators stole his Rolex!
“NoWay” (31, real name Frederik Hinteregger) posted a video of the attack on X (formerly Twitter).
He writes: “Was robbed yesterday, gun (turned out to be fake) to the head, knife to the neck – lots of blows to the head. I’m okay, take care of yourselves.”

“NoWay” was at the season finale of the “League of Legends” e-sports league LEC in Montpellier at the weekend, which he streamed and commented on live on Twitch.
On Saturday evening, “NoWay” went out with his friend Niklot “Tolkin” Stüber to get something to eat.

In his stream, “NoWay” tells what happened next:
▶︎ After eating, “two young gentlemen” jogged past them. “We didn’t think anything of it, to be honest. Then they waited for us. Specifically to me because I had my Rolex on.”
Their value: according to “NoWay” 15,000 to 20,000 euros.

▶︎ The robbers wearing respiratory masks had a pistol with them, according to “NoWay”. They held them to his head and demanded the watch
▶︎ He wanted to run away when one of the attackers hit him in the head with a pistol. It shattered in the process – so apparently it wasn’t real.
They had a fake gun and a large kitchen knife later, so they didn’t do anything – they should have just handed over the watch straight away instead of running (you can still see parts there) pic.twitter.com/IkbSITe1hN

The men then threw him on the ground. In the video filmed by an acquaintance, you can see them beating him. He shouts: “Police!” Someone shouts: “Just give them the money now!”
▶︎ Then someone pulled out a kitchen knife. “When I saw the kitchen knife, I knew: I had no chance. Because: He would have stabbed too.” He then gave them his watch.

The Twitch star was lucky in misfortune: “At the end of the day: I’m fine, I’m healthy. I have a bit of a headache because I got hit in the head quite a lot.”
“NoWay” even blames himself: it was “extremely stupid” of him to defend himself. “I could have saved myself a lot of damage. And – if the weapon had been real – perhaps worse.”
