evidence: In one video, a user claims a friend sent him a video of a laser beam "coming out of the sky, directly targeting the city." "This was a direct energy weapon assault," he said. The video remains posted but now includes a label from Instagram listing it as "false information." The imagery appears to be from a previous SpaceX launch in California. Related far-fetched theories say the alleged "laser beams" were programmed not to hit anything blue, explaining why so many blue beach umbrellas were left unscathed by the fires.
