Police said by the time they responded, both Amy Cooper and Christian Cooper were gone.
"Then the next stop is to send those detectives to Amy's house and put her in handcuffs to send a strong message that you will not use the police department to go after individuals," he continued. The mayor said at a news conference Thursday that,"There's a very valid question about calling the police for any false claim of a crime. And I don’t know the law, but that’s the direction I would look at. Did she commit an offense by falsely accusing someone?"
Amy Cooper apologized for her behavior on Monday, saying she reacted"emotionally and made false assumptions" about Christian Cooper's intentions.NBC New York
