NORTH LIBERTY, Iowa (KCRG) - A North Liberty woman who reportedly got cold feet just before meeting someone she met through a dating app was arrested after police said she falsely reported the man was threatening to assault her, leading to the man being detained for over an hour.

In a criminal complaint, police said 18-year-old Sumaya Thomas called 911 just after midnight on June 16 to report that her abusive ex-boyfriend was texting her, threatening to hit, punch, kick and stab her. She also allegedly reported that she was pregnant with the man’s baby.

However, officers found the man leaving the scene. He reportedly told officers he had only just met Thomas about a week ago on a dating app. They then changed from talking via the app to exchanging text messages.

The man showed police the text conversation, which officers said corroborated his story.

When officers interviews Thomas, they said she reported having known the man for two years and that she was pregnant with his baby, and that he had been abusive to her and wouldn’t leave her alone.

After a third interview, police said Thomas admitted to making the false reports because she got cold feet before meeting him and no longer wanted to.

During the interview, Thomas reportedly told police she didn’t think officers would help, so she made up the events.

The man was detained for more than an hour due to the false accusations.

Thomas is charged with two counts of False Report of Indictable Offense to Public Entity, and one count of False Report - 911 call.

The guy was lucky. I’d go to jail before I’d go on a date with that beast.

When she calls the police on you before she has even met you, she might not be a keeper.

How much time would he have gotten for abuse and stalking?

She should spend twice that in prison, and then be held liable for defamation.

I’m surprised, usually they just make up some BS about something suddenly coming up at the last minute, or just flat out don’t respond and block you.

Like the one I called 2 hours before a date to confirm arrival time, only to be told she’d just gotten engaged.

My reply: Please give my condolences to your fiance.
