Woman calls police on Black man using his phone, falsely claims he had gun

Darren Cooper had arrived early for a meeting, but someone reported to local cops that he was sitting in his car armed. An Akron, Ohio man recounted the events that led to officers from the Ravenna Police Department pulling guns on him as he sat in a parking lot on Aug. 13. Cooper told the Akron Beacon Journal that he was waiting outside of the Portage County Job and Family Services building, where he was expected for a 9 a.m. training session.
