Fact Check: Girl's Video About Ice Cream Truck Out At 1 A.M. Was NOT 'Last Video She Ever Posted' -- She Posted Two After Not Her Last

Is the viral video of a young woman wondering what an ice cream truck is doing out and about at 1 a.m. the last video she ever posted? No, that's not true: After posting that video August 19, 2025, she posted a related video August 21. On August 23, she posted another TikTok video about the ice cream truck and her claim she was abducted.

The claim that the night-scene video was her last ever post appeared in an October 8, 2025 X post (archived here) on the @HustleBitch_ account with the text "A girl recorded this video showing an ice cream truck creeping through her neighborhood at 1 A.M." It continued:

Allegedly, it was the last video she ever posted.
She's been missing since August 4.

Why was an ice cream truck out that late...and what happened to her after this?

TikTok records the date users post videos.

On the tierneydugss account, three videos about the ice cream truck are shown in their own collection, all three of them after the date the X post claims she went missing:

They are, in order:

August 19, 2025 post, in which she orders a snack from an ice cream truck and is told she has to get into the truck to get it. Overlaid on the video is this text:

Why is this ice cream truck out at 1:00 am?

August 21 post, referred to as "Replying to @REAL QUEEN T 👑 Update on the Virginia ice cream truck situation..."

August 23 post, referred to as "Replying to @wisely_yeonn storytime on the ice cream truck situation".
