Date:

Police in Iowa have arrested Sumaya Thomas, 18, for allegedly making a false 911 call to avoid meeting up with a man she had connected with on a dating app. According to authorities, Thomas called emergency services on June 16, claiming her abusive ex-boyfriend was outside her home and threatening her with violence through text messages.

Police in Iowa have arrested Sumaya Thomas, 18, for allegedly making a false 911 call.

Upon responding to the call, officers from the North Liberty Police Department found no evidence of the alleged ex-boyfriend at the scene. Instead, they encountered the man described by Thomas, who informed them that he had been communicating with her for about a week via the dating app before moving their conversations to text messages. The man cooperated with police, providing evidence of their interactions on both the app and via text.

Police investigations confirmed that the threatening messages were indeed sent to Thomas’s phone number. The man was temporarily detained for over an hour due to the false accusations made by Thomas.

During subsequent interviews, Thomas admitted to fabricating the entire incident because she “got cold feet on meeting him and no longer wanted to.” She confessed, stating, “She advised she didn’t think officers would help so she made up this call and the events that she described.”

Thomas was arrested on June 16 and charged with two misdemeanor counts of false reporting. She was later released from Johnson County Jail following her arrest.
