SOCIAL media personality Steve Will Do It has been arrested in Orlando, Florida, police records show.
The influencer claimed it was for trespassing at Universal Studios.
“Officers responded to the 6000 block of Universal Blvd (Universal Studios) in reference to a trespass call,” the Orlando Police Department confirmed to The U.S. Sun.
“The individual identified as Stephen Deleonardis was arrested by responding officers for a trespass charge.”
Deleonardis (@SteveWillDoIt) posted a picture of his alleged mugshot, which shows him wearing a fake mustache he claimed he used as a disguise to sneak into the park.
“SteveWillDoit is in jail right now,” an X post by his family read.
“We are working on getting him out.”
After being released, the influencer quoted the post and said he was only trying to have fun.
“The best part of this is the fact I did this off camera for fun,” he wrote.
“This had nothing to do with content I was just trying to have fun at universal.”
Earlier that day, Steve posted a picture of himself wearing a fake mustache, sunglasses, and a blue baseball cap.
“This was me on the way to universal studios yesterday,” he wrote.
He replied to his post, “I spent $5000 on a private tour and rode one ride then immediately got arrested. My ban from universal was up in like 26 days too.”
The former YouTuber also shared his mugshot on Instagram for his 4 million followers to see.
On the first slide of the two-slide post, the influencer posted a screenshot of the X post, informing his followers that he had been arrested.
The second slide is a close-up of the mugshot.
“Keep you guys posted. Best mugshot of all time,” the caption read.
Two hours after posting, Steve commented under his post, “I’m out.”
The post left followers praising his “legendary” mugshot and calling for his release from jail.
“Legendary mugshot man,” one fan commented.
“That’s not Steve, that’s Mario! They got the wrong guy,” another follower said.
However, not everyone believed the former YouTuber known for doing outlandish challenges and pranks.
“There’s no way this is real,” one skeptic wrote under the post.
The member of the social media group the Nelk Boys made headlines after he interviewed former president Donald Trump in 2022.
A clip posted on X from Trump’s appearance on the Full Send podcast shows Steve, off camera, asking the business mogul, “You’re a billionaire and an awesome guy. Why don’t you just f**k off and go to an island?”
Trump was unphased by the language used in the question and replied, “You know why? Because I love our country, and I want to make America great again.”
Trump supporters were not happy with the language used by the influencer.
“Get some manners, dude…how uncultured,” one commenter wrote.
Others said Steve should be “condemned” for how he handled the situation.
“This reporter should be condemned for his rude and disrespectful attitude,” the angry X user wrote.
