CNN • • nation
Key Points:
- Braden Peters, known online as Clavicular, was arrested in Florida on misdemeanor battery charges related to a fight earlier this year involving his girlfriend and another influencer, with authorities stating he instigated and exploited the altercation on social media.
- Peters' girlfriend, Violet Lentz, is still being sought by law enforcement in connection with the same incident, while Peters was arrested in South Florida and booked into Broward County Jail.
- The arrest is separate from an incident where Peters livestreamed shooting an alligator during a Florida swamp airboat tour, which is under investigation by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission for potential legal violations.
- This battery arrest marks Peters’ second recent arrest; in February, he was detained in Arizona for allegedly using a fake ID but was not charged.
- Peters is notorious for promoting “looksmaxxing,” a movement encouraging extreme physical alteration to enhance appearance, and has a history of controversial behavior, including using racist language and associating with extremist figures.
