Streamer Nina Lin has been permanently banned from Twitch days after he was arrested in New York City

Twitch streamer Nina Layne appears to have lost access to her Twitch channel just a few days after she was arrested during the New York Knicks’ championship celebrations. People who visit her channel now see a message saying the account is unavailable due to violations of Twitch’s Community Guidelines or Terms of Service.

Although Twitch has not shared the exact reason for this action, the notice is the same as it typically displays for an indefinite or permanent suspension.The timing has drawn more attention to the streamer, who has been involved in several controversies over the past year. The latest development comes shortly after videos emerged of Lin climbing onto the roof of an Amazon delivery truck during Knicks celebrations in New York City.

The clips quickly spread across the internet and became one of the most talked about moments of the event.

Nina Lin’s Twitch channel has been suspended after she was arrested during Knicks celebrations

Lin was arrested on June 13 near Madison Square Garden, where thousands of fans gathered to celebrate the Knicks winning their first NBA championship in more than five decades. Videos circulated on social media showed her standing on top of an Amazon delivery vehicle before the police arrested her. It was unclear at the time whether she would face any charges related to the incident.

The apparent ban on Twitch has also renewed discussion about Lin’s history on the platform. In October 2025, she and teammate Zoe Spencer received suspensions after old clips involving Saeed, FaZe Silky’s assistant, appeared online. The videos led to viewer criticism and sparked controversy over Twitch’s moderation decisions.A short time later, Lin faced another suspension after a livestream from a Target store went viral.

During the broadcast, some viewers accused her of scanning cheaper products while putting expensive items into shopping bags. Lynn denied the allegations and told her followers that she expected to return to the platform.However, her channel now displays a notice suggesting more serious enforcement action. Unlike temporary suspensions, the current message indicates that the channel is unavailable due to rule violations, which is often associated with an indefinite ban.At this time, Twitch has not commented publicly on Nina Lin’s situation. As fans continue to speculate about what led to the latest action, many are waiting to see if the streamer will respond or if more information will become available in the coming days.
