Videos falsely linked to Berlin Pride attack identified

• Footage linked online to Berlin Pride instead shows a July 11 shooting at Toronto’s Salsa on St. Clair festival, Canadian police said.
• A nighttime video said to show the suspect’s arrest does not depict him; whether it relates to Berlin’s celebrations remains unclear.
• Videos presented as reactions to the attack were AI-generated, including staged political messages and an imitation police statement.
