I didn’t even hear about this until now.
A story posted on a mysterious website has been widely circulated on social media after it made a baseless claim that Kamala Harris - the Democratic presidential nominee - was involved in an alleged hit-and-run incident.
There is no evidence to confirm her identity or whether she is paralysed (she is filmed sitting down and from the waist up in an undisclosed location).
The article refers to her as both Alisha and Alicia, without explanation.
In the video, she claims she was hit by a car while crossing the road in June 2011 with her mother in San Francisco and later claims, again without providing any evidence, that the person who hit her was Kamala Harris.
A narrator in the video then say this woman has undergone 11 surgeries and two X-rays are shown.
No evidence of the incident occurring nor the involvement of Ms Harris are provided.
BBC Verify downloaded the image and searched for previous versions of it online - using a reverse image search tool - and found that it was originally posted in a news story about a crash in Mangilao, Guam, in 2018.
Next, we examined the X-rays shown in the video.
Using reverse image search again, it is clear that these images have been lifted from medical research articles posted in 2010 and 2017.
According to the articles, the first X-ray belongs to a 58-year-old patient admitted to a hospital in China.
The second X-ray belongs to a 12-year-old girl admitted to the Radboud University Medical Center in the Netherlands.
My God. No wonder everyone has their knickers in a twist.

It might be from the Russians, they are known hackers trying to swing the election to Trump, Putin has Trump in his back pocket and would much prefer to have a bumbling idiot like Trump as POTUS.

@shavixmir saidIt might be the Russians, but ol' Donny boy is getting pretty desperate himself. I read something just the other day that said he's bleeding supporters and the writer expected the bottom to fall out of his campaign by the middle of October.

@sonhouse said““Our ‘favorite,’ if you can call it that, was the current president, Mr. [Joe] Biden. But he was removed from the race, and he recommended all his supporters to support Ms. Harris. Well, we will do so – we will support her,” Putin said Thursday at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok. “She laughs so expressively and infectiously that it means that she is doing well.””
@Suzianne
The main question then, is why this fuuuking LATE? My guess is they now know Trump is not running against Biden.

Right, and in the meantime we have proof Russia is trying to slant the election in Trump's favor. Putin's job when he was in the KGB was propaganda so if you believe anything he says you are being duped just like you are with Trump.
