It is not known what altercation took place before the man was allegedly assaulted.

He then moved from Vine to Twitter, Instagram and YouTube, where he would interact with fans, answer questions and perform dares.
He starred in a Netflix reality show called Chasing Cameron. and has recently been pursuing a career in music.
