Shark infested highways, planes underwater and fridge rescues: Influx of hoax photos...

• http://www.dailymail.co, By EMILY CRANE

There has been an influx of dramatic photos since Hurricane Harvey started wreaking havoc on Houston and other parts of Texas at the weekend. 

But as images of destruction and devastation surfaced, so too did the hoax photos that claimed to be from the tropical storm.

A doctored image of a shark swimming down a highway started doing the rounds on Twitter before it was picked up by Fox News' Jesse Watters on Monday night.

The Fox host was speaking on his program about the images he had seen online in the wake of the hurricane when he mentioned the highway shark.

'I've seen some amazing things out there just looking at television. Alligators on people's back door steps. I saw a shark on a highway swimming in the water.

He added that it was 'like Sharknado'.   

The shark photo is a long debunked fake image that seems to surface every time a flood occurs.
