Original story is as follows:
JustaMinx is an Irish Twitch streamer who has returned to social media after a lengthy hiatus.
She’s been active on Twitter and is getting back into the swing of streaming, all while preparing to celebrate her birthday on November 3… but the festivities were put on hold due to a frightening incident.
The morning of November 3, Minx published a tweet claiming that her window had been smashed and her home broken into.

Minx’s claims of her home being broken into came with images of her window being smashed in. That’s not all, though; she also said that her two cats, Cornelius and Sylum, were missing.

“Quite possibly the worst birthday ever,” the streamer said of the ordeal. “I feel like I can’t breathe.”
Luckily, Minx was able to find one of her kitties, Cornelius — but made another discovery that set her hair on end. According to the streamer, a man had been sleeping underneath her home, and presumably was the one who’d broken into her house.

Despite this, Minx says that the homeowner has footage of “two men,” and says that she was able to get law enforcement involved to investigate the home invasion.
