About

@DoubsClears "A Home Invasion Is Happening in My House Right Now" Tweet refers to a viral post shared by Twitter / X user @DoubsClears in late August 2024, which read, "A home invasion is happening in my house right now I’m hiding under the bed I hear my little brother screaming downstairs." The post received viral quotes questioning the user's decision to tweet instead of helping or calling 911. Others humorously imagined what was happening to the little brother downstairs amid the alleged invasion via memes. Many believed that @DoubsClears was lying and made fun of him in the following days for trying to keep his virality alive via follow-up tweets about the alleged invasion. In turn, many likened the post to engagement bait and labeled @DoubsClear cringe.

10 @DoubsClears Ok so here's what happened the other night, Yes this is DoubsClears not the home invaders. I'm not supposed to be telling anyone about this because of safety reasons but my parents don't know about this account so I'll tell you guys what happened the best I can. It started just before 10:00 pm while I was just chilling in my room listening to On Sight by Kanye West with my brand new Airpod Max's when I heard some loud banging noises downstairs. This was quite concerning so I took off my brand new headphones and the banging continued and a few seconds later I heard my little brother screaming very loud. My parents were out of town so I was responsible of taking care of him for the night (he's 11) Long story short my Dad used to be involved with the Sinaloa Cartel and they were looking for him. They water boarded my little brother among other methods while asking him where everyone was while I hid under the bed scared for my life. This was when I made the tweet. We live in a very secluded area with bad cell service so I wasn't able to call 911. A minute or two later a very large Mexican man with a moustache came into my room and dragged me out by my feet. I tried to fight him off but two other large Mexican men joined in so I had no chance in a 1v3. They tied me to a chair beside my little brother and started yelling at us asking us where our parents were. We told them we didn't know over and over and then they searched our house for what seemed like 20-30 minutes. They said when they find our Dad he's a dead man and that they will be watching us. They left us tied up and ran to what looked like a dark SUV from what I could see (it was very dark) My parents came home the next morning and we told them everything that happened. We have been staying in different Hotels since then and we plan on moving to a different state. 8:37 PM - Aug 26, 2024 2.1M Views
