Police investigating the murder of an InfoWars reporter in Austin this week said he was likely the victim of a random car burglary attempt gone wrong. That hasn't stopped InfoWars founder Alex Jones from doing what he does best: peddling conspiracy theories.

In a matter-of-fact update that did not address the conspiracy theories swirling in right-wing media, Austin police said that Mr. White, 36, was trying to thwart his vehicle from being stolen outside his apartment complex on Sunday night when someone shot him and fled. Mr. White later died at the hospital.
