Bryan Silva (left) in his gay porn days went by Max Payne
Former gay for pay porn star and Vine sensation, Bryan Silva was arrested over the weekend after a police stand-off in Charlottesville, Virginia. Silva gained attention as the “gra-ta-ta” guy, a name that refers to a gun noise he makes in a Vine video that has been viewed more than 18 million times. Silva once “performed” in gay porn under the name Max Payne but quit called the industry and his work “lame.” This recent run-in had to do with a domestic dispute with his 17-year-old girlfriend. NBC news said:
Investigators said that call came from a neighbor, after Silva’s 17-year-old girlfriend escaped the house and called for help. Police say Silva threatened her with a gun and warned he’d shoot police.
“We got a call here this morning, shortly after 6 o’clock, for a disturbance, it was a domestic disturbance. A female said she was threatened with a firearm,” said Charlottesville Police Chief Tim Longo.
Police say Silva refused to come out of the house and barricaded himself inside when officers arrived with warrants for abduction and possession of a firearm.
The police tactical team and crisis negotiation team was dispatched, creating quite a scene in the neighborhood of family homes and churches. Streets around the Silva’s home were also blocked off.
During the standoff Silva posted updates on Facebook, including one video with the caption,
“Y’all pigs can suck my monster dick.”
Another video at the time showed him drinking what appears to be vodka. Police eventually stormed Silva’s house and arrested him on charges of abduction and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Photos of Silva being taken into custody show his pants down around his knees.
Website “Huzlers” falsely reported Silva’s death
For a while the Internet was saying that Silva was gunned down. The site Huzlers said that the was shot dead. Not true. Later in an interview, Silva kept saying “free me” over and over to NBC news:
“Free me. It’s a big mix-up, big confusion. Free me. That’s all I have to say. Thank you. I’m done.”
He is being held in solitary confinement at the Albemarle Charlottesville Regional Jail. Seems like playing with guns can get real ones to show up on your door. There’s a new 2016 definition for white trash, kids! Yes, I said “white trash”. I’m from Texas, I’m white and I know what I’m talking about. If you are European, you are free to use the term Euro-trash indiscriminately. (T/Y Tad; via Towleroad)
Silva being arrested with his pants around his knees… for some reason?
