A word of advice as you are scrolling through Facebook: Don't click on the "Lafayette Terror Attack" story, as it is spam.

The cover photo features a Lafayette City Police vehicle in front of the Grand Theater on Johnston Street, which could easily entice locals to click the story.

The story itself is written in a fashion that allows it to have happened in any city, as it doesn't give specifics.
