A super viral tweet about a trashed Walmart is “absolutely untrue,” says a Bay Area police department.
The Walmart located on North Texas Street in Fairfield, Calif. Police say they have been receiving 911 calls due to a misleading tweet.A tweet showing a badly damaged Walmart has racked up more than 1 million views on Twitter. It has no context other than a caption that reads, “Fairfield, California Walmart. Guess who? #DemocratsAreDestroyingAmerica.”
But the tweet doesn’t show an incident in Fairfield, local police say, and they’ve been desperately trying to get Twitter to intervene. “This account is not a reputable source of information. This is absolutely untrue,” the Fairfield Police Department account tweeted. “There has been no such incident in Fairfield, California. #MisinformationIsADangerousThing.”
This account is not a reputable source of information. This is absolutely untrue. There has been no such incident in Fairfield, California.
