The professional Valorant player from Sentinels Hunter “SicK” Mims has reportedly been arrested for the second time this year. SicK has been charged with criminal trespassing, which was the same charge he faced during his first arrest over two months ago. His recent behavior on social media and Twitch broadcasts has caused concern in the Valorant community, and some of his former teammates have urged fans to look past it.

The news of SicK's latest arrest was first reported by journalist George Geddes on 8th May. According to reports, the former Sentinels player was taken into custody for criminal trespassing, and this charge has been confirmed by Collin County’s judicial records.

He was arrested again today for criminal trespassing, the same charge as before.
You may have seen he acted differently on stream. He isn't well, please support him when he returns. 1/2
SicK's first arrest occurred on 4h March 4, after he refused to leave a Ferrari dealership, leading to a Class B Misdemeanor charge. This resulted in his suspension from the Sentinels Valorant roster, and he has yet to return to competitive play.
SicK's recent behavior has been a cause of concern for many in the Valorant community, including some of his former teammates. In April, SicK posted several tweets with what appeared to be drugs and other paraphernalia. He also displayed erratic behavior and slurred speech in multiple Twitch broadcasts.
Despite his recent behavior, some of his former teammates have urged the community to look past his conduct and remember the person they know. G2’s Shahzeb "ShahZaM" Khan tweeted asking fans to ignore SicK's tweets and behavior, stating "I promise this isn’t who he is."
Hey guys, I have Sick blocked so I can make this tweet. He’s not himself right now, please try your best to ignore his tweets and erratic behavior for now. I promise this isn’t who he is. Thanks for being understanding.

While there has been no official statement from SicK or the Sentinels organization regarding his latest arrest, his future in the competitive VALORANT scene remains uncertain. The Sentinels have not indicated whether or not they plan to reinstate SicK to their roster following his suspension.
