2022-02-11

OTTAWA, Ohio (AP) — A man who wanted to join the protests in Canada’s capital over mask mandates called in a bomb threat so police would waste their time chasing it, authorities said, but he called the wrong Ottawa — a village in Ohio.The man, a 20-year-old from Akron, Ohio, called the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office twice Monday, said sheriff’s Capt. Brad Brubaker

The first time he made a bomb threat, and then in a second call he said he had been shot, Brubaker said. That’s when the man found out he was talking with someone in Ohio.“He wasn’t paying attention and just called the first number he found,” Brubaker told The Lima News. “He said he was mad about mask mandates.”The sheriff’s office said it would ask the county prosecutor to consider charges against the man.Related...COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate Protests Threaten Border Trade Between U.S., CanadaChristian Fundraiser For Kyle Rittenhouse Now Collecting Millions For Ottawa Trucker MobTed Cruz Throws In With Anti-Vaccine Ottawa Trucker Mob As City Declares EmergencyOttawa Mayor Declares State Of Emergency Due To Protest Against Vaccine MandateOttawa Anti-Vaccine Trucker 'Siege' Hit With $9.8 Million Citizen Class-Action SuitGov.
