A 20-year-old man from Akron, Ohio, is facing potential criminal charges after allegedly issuing a bomb threat to police in Ottawa, Ohio, mistakenly thinking he was threatening police in the Canadian capital.
“Our dispatcher stayed on the line with him for quite a while we tried to determine what was going on,” Putnam County Sheriff’s Office Captain Brad Brubaker said Wednesday about the threat, which took place Monday, . “We ran a trace on the call, due to the emergency nature of it, and got a location in the Akron area.”“He called back a second time claiming he had been shot. When he found out he was talking to Ohio and not Canada, he said he hadn’t been shot but was simply trying to waste time and resources because he didn’t agree with their mask mandate,” Brubaker said, who added that the caller admitted at that point there was no bomb.
Brubaker said the young man apparently called the police in Ottawa, Ohio after Googling the phone number for the police in Ottawa, Canada.Others have reportedly made the same mistake, prompting the department to post to its Facebook page Tuesday: “Just for clarification, this page is the Ottawa Police Department, in Ottawa, Putnam County, Ohio. We have been receiving calls, messages and comments from citizens in Canada.

This protest is on the right side of history. we are seeing the mandates being dropped left right & centre. Of course Dems laughably trying to move themselves into a position where they make it seem like their idea. But its people power combined with basic sense based on FACTS
