The 7/11 Incident
On the 11th of July, 2023, Daniel, following the conclusion of the Dog Arc where Music, the dog he fraudulently "adopted" was rescued, had a freakout inside a Walmart, causing about $2000 worth of property damage, as well as destroying a bus window, and several other appliances inside the store. This incident occurred roughly around 1:30pm MST (UTC-7). The reason for this meltdown occurred after Daniel had realized that his Music was "dognapped" from him, causing him to go on a major freakout.
This incident was one of few where a bystander had not recorded the incident, nor did any direct or indirect witnesses, making it lost media until it was recovered via police bodycam footage on the 28th of February 2024. Even more, Daniel, who is known to compulsively lie, surprisingly was somewhat truthful about the whole incident. Much of what Daniel had stated in a phone call after the incident had been proven to be true in the bodycam footage, including him being restrained, destruction of property, and the lottery machine being broken.
One portion that Daniel however did not state in the phone call is the leash. According to a woman working nearby, Daniel had swung a leash that he had bought for Zola at a nearby PetSmart and hit a front window of a bus carrying senior citizens, causing it to crack.
He was humorously described to have been "40-50 years old" according to witnesses on the bus.
Background
Between the 9th to the 11th of July, Daniel's followers had been searching for him after concerns that a dog, named by Daniel "Music" (originally Zola) that he adopted was in danger, clearly due to his homeless situation and his grave inability to take care of himself. The Longmont Humane society was called in the 3 days that Music was in possession of Daniel, along with Animal Control units. On the 11th of July, an individual named "Ween" who had posed as a veterinarian was able to recover Music and bring it back to the Longmont Humane Society shelters.
Following this, there was an absence of posts from Daniel Larson for 7 hours until he then claimed that he was out of police custody and received new criminal charges. One of the posts showed Daniel with an injured face, possibly implied from Daniel hitting himself repeatedly.
Daniel had explained that self-injurious behaviors took place, as well as Walmart security throwing him down, he would explain his side of the story within numerous community tab posts following this.
After these posts, a call between Daniel and Goated Mines leaked, where Daniel goes into depth regarding his side of the story.

Recovery of the 7/11 Incident Footage
On the 10th of February, 2024 Reddit user u/boodiemonstre made a post on r/DanielLarson making a call to action to possibly try to located bodycam footage from police from the Walmart where the incident occurred. [1] He, along with several other redditors had contributed to a crowdfunding campaign to recover the footage, with occasional weekly updates being made regarding the status of the footage.
On the 26th of February, u/boodiemonstre made a post claiming that the footage had to have another request be put in to find it after the original request for the footage had not initially gone through. Approximately a few days later on the 28th, the footage was found and posted to the subreddit, in full.
