Hunter “SicK” Mims, was arrested for the second time in three months, this time on charges of criminal trespassing.

SicK was “arrested again… for criminal trespassing, the same charge as before,” journalist George Geddes wrote on May 8 of this year, detailing the star’s second arrest on this same charge. Dot Esports was able to verify the charge by consulting the Collin County court records.

A little over two months ago, SicK was also accused of the same offence. The VALORANT pro was arrested on March 4, 2023, for committing a Class B Misdemeanour for remaining in a Ferrari showroom after being asked to leave.

SicK currently sits on the inactive roster of Sentinels. His aggressive duelling style and great gaming talents have helped his side win a number of tournaments and competitions. SicK’s last game came on December 5, 2022, against Team Subroza, for which he once played for Team Rossy.

There has been some speculation about the former VALORANT star’s behavior recently. In April, SicK tweeted images of what appear to be some recreational drugs, and he also streamed many times on Twitch while appearing to be under the influence, exhibiting erratic behavior and slurred speech.

Earlier this week, the American’s former teammates took to Twitter to tell the world to ignore his current behavior. They claim the VALORANT pro hasn’t been accurately portrayed in recent months.

ShahZaM, a member of G2, pleaded with followers to overlook SicK’s tweets and behavior just one day before his second arrest. He vowed, “I promise this isn’t who he is.”

According to a previous report by DotEsports, Hunter “SicK” Mims of Sentinels Valorant was earlier taken into custody. So far, there has been no official word regarding the 24-year-old’s release. Mims is being held on a $5000 USD bond after being charged with a Class B misdemeanor as he is currently being detained in Dallas, Texas at the Collin County Jail. 

The Law Office of Andrew Williams estimates that he could spend up to 180 days in jail or pay a $2,000 fine.

After his tweet about a confrontation at a Ferrari dealership, Mims was eventually taken into custody by local law enforcement officers. According to the report surfaced by Dot, Mims remained at the dealership yet after being asked to leave the premises. He too added that the cops were summoned upon Mims calling the place to be “disrespectful”.
