A San Antonio mall security guard is suing Kai Cenat, AMP, Duke Dennis, and others for over $1 million after he claims he was punched during the group’s viral hide-and-seek livestream.
According to the San Antonio Express-News, security officer Don White filed the lawsuit in state district court after an incident at the Shops at Rivercenter mall on August 2, 2025.
White claims AMP members were given limited permission to film inside specific areas of the mall, but went beyond those restrictions and continued livestreaming after the mall had closed.
The lawsuit alleges White and other security staff told the group to leave before police were called to remove people playing hide-and-seek throughout the property.
During the confrontation, White claims he was punched in the mouth by Lavoune Clarke, who is described in the lawsuit as a member of AMP’s security team. White says he suffered injuries that required emergency-room treatment and is seeking damages for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and lost earning capacity.

AMP security member facing felony charges
The August 2025 incident quickly went viral after Duke Dennis was arrested at the mall.
Police said at the time that officers responded around 10 PM to remove individuals who were playing hide-and-seek and causing a disruption after the mall had closed.
Dennis was charged with criminal trespassing and evading arrest. However, the Express-News reports those misdemeanor charges were later dismissed after he completed a pretrial diversion program.
Clarke, meanwhile, still faces pending felony charges connected to the incident, including two counts of assault on a peace officer and one count of assault on a security officer.

The lawsuit names AMP Entertainment, Duke Dennis, Kai Cenat, producer Henry Wolf, content manager Joshua Pujols, and Clarke as defendants. The suit accuses them of participating in, supervising, or failing to prevent the conduct that led to White’s injuries.
Clarke’s lawyer, Zachary Green, denied the allegations, saying: “Mr. Clarke has and continues to maintain his innocence pertaining to these claims of wrongdoing.”
AMP were in San Antonio at the time for their monthlong “30 Days of Summer” streaming event, which saw the group staying at NBA legend Tony Parker’s estate while livestreaming daily across the city.
