Over Memorial Day weekend, a white woman called law enforcement claiming that an Black man was threatening her in a wooded area of Central Park — but the video taken by the man tells a very different story. While police heard the voice of a woman in distress, the video shows her threatening the man — who was asking her to put her dog on a leash — and saying just before the call, “I’m going to tell them there’s an African-American man threatening my life.” A viral Twitter video circulated on Monday after an encounter earlier that day.
