  "account": "Several videos claiming a mass shooting occurred at Amazura, Queens, on September 14 circulated online. However, no such incident took place today. Unverified profiles shared footage of a police presence in Queens, falsely claiming 11 people were shot in a mass casualty event. The sharing of old news, especially in the context of a tragic mass shooting, sparked outrage online. \"Old footage from a New Year's Day 2025 shooting outside Queens’ Amazura venue is circulating again falsely framed as a breaking mass casualty event,\" one wrote. The original incident involved 10 teenagers wounded outside the hall, not an active club rampage. Repurposing past gun violence for instant viral clout is condemned as reckless engagement farming. No mainstream media reports confirmed a shooting in Amazura, and the NYPD had not issued any alerts.",
  "summary": "Several videos were shared claiming a mass shooting took place in Amazura, Queens on September 14, but these are old clips from 2025.",
