'Call of Duty' Player Killed Over Online Dispute; Alleged Gunman Threw Propane Tank, and Brutally Shot Him at Home

A Call of Duty streamer named Matthew Thane was recently killed in the comfort of his home over an alleged online dispute against another player in the game. The suspect lured the victim to go outside of his home by throwing a propane tank. As Thane went outside to check the chaos, he was shot to death by the gunman.

Is this a real-life Call of Duty?

As said, Thane was a COD player that streams his games online. After his death, his friends created a GoFundMe online fundraiser as support for his family.

"Matthew never failed to put a smile on someone's face and brighten their day. He was such an unique character, one of a kind. Let's come together and support his family in this time of need," as said on the GoFundMe page.

As of Saturday, Aug. 22, the fund is already near its quota of $20,000. Over 300 people had already sent money to Thane family through the page. It was also shared over 3,000 times in online platforms.
