Proven Hoax.
The alleged leaked video from Raccoon City is now a proven hoax as stated by Umbrella Corporation Spokesperson, Gabriel Gutierrez. This video was uploaded on the internet and was rumored to be nothing but a ruse. According to some sources, the video was taken by a Raccoon City local news reporter, Terri Morales. As of now, she is nowhere to be found and presumed dead due to the recent events. The video had shown a lot of gunfire, gore and violence that is not suitable for young audience. It is to be advised that parents should be vigilant as to what their children are watching.
The video is now taken down and the FBI is still tracking the responsible individuals who uploaded the hoax. However, they have not yet released a statement regarding this. As per advise, the video should not be taken as real and to report any leads that could pinpoint the perpetrators.
“This is not a time for a joke at the expense of others. The whole nation is mourning and the last thing we need is a hoax that directs away from the truth. There are no undead that are walking around and there are no threatening monsters that will come and get you. This is nothing but an effort to start a nation-wide panic. And as such, we will not fall to such pretenses.”
