I sincerely hope he’s okay if this actually happened. Holy smokes dude!!!"

The post began trending as fans and followers expressed shock, with some accusing her of insensitivity. However, the woman quickly clarified that she had no official confirmation and was merely relaying what she had been told, saying, “I didn’t think it would leave my circle. I tweeted, left for an hour or so, and came back to the news of him passing away and the tweet had blown up. Apologies to those who feel I was insensitive, it wasn’t my intention!”

Screenshots of the text exchange between her and her friend in Argentina were also shared in subsequent tweets, further intensifying the online conversation.

The woman later apologised for any perceived insensitivity, stating that she did not expect the situation to escalate in such a tragic manner.
