Food delivery companies Uber Eats and DoorDash emphatically denied any association with Jose Ibarra, a Venezuelan immigrant who came across the southern border illegally and was arrested last week as a suspect in the murder of University of Georgia student Laken Riley.

“We don’t have a record of the suspect or his brother on our platform,” a DoorDash representative said in a statement to the Washington Examiner on Tuesday. “We don’t have an account associated with either of them.”
