29-year-old YouTuber Coby Persin, whose real name is Chaim Persin and has millions of followers across his social media platforms, was jailed in Nashville Sunday evening. Persin, who is often known as ‘That guy from YouTube,’ was seen in the city this weekend with the troubled Jack Zuckowsky. An employee of Taziki’s Mediterranean Cafe – The Gulch flagged down nearby officers to report Persin was acting erratic at the location. Officers found the YouTuber without his shirt or shoes and reeking of alcohol. His social media shows him drinking across the rooftops of downtown Nashville in the hours prior. Persin was so intoxicated he was unable to tell officers where he was staying and was unable to have anyone retrieve him to a safe place. The arresting officer says Persin was unable to form complete sentences or thoughts during questioning and deemed him unable to care for himself.
