False Claims About New Orleans Attacker Spread Despite Being Debunked

Credited from: ALJAZEERA

  • A **New Year's Day truck attack** in New Orleans resulted in 15 fatalities and is being treated as an act of terrorism.
  • Shamsud-Din Jabbar, the **42-year-old suspect**, is a U.S. citizen and Army veteran, contrary to claims he was an illegal immigrant.
  • False information about Jabbar, including that he crossed the **U.S.-Mexico border** shortly before the attack, spread rapidly on social media.
  • **Fox News** initially reported that Jabbar's truck was linked to the border crossing just days earlier but later corrected this, stating it actually crossed in **November**.
  • Despite the corrections, misinformation still circulates online, highlighting the challenges of combating false narratives in the media.
