A promise of free Playstations has led to a chaotic scene of unrest in New York City's Union Square.
Twitch streamer Kai Cenat posted on the livestreaming service promising free PlayStation gaming consoles at Union Square at 4 p.m. Thousands of people showed up, only to learn there was no such giveaway.
People ran through the streets and some were seen jumping on cars and a city bus.
Some people started throwing plywood and other items, prompting a rush of police to the scene.
There have been no arrests and no reported injuries.
Multiple subway lines that stop at Union Square are now bypassing the station.
This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.
