‘Black Panther’ director Ryan Coogler speaks out after being mistaken for bank robber, detained
Fox News
Ryan Coogler found himself in a tense situation when he was detained in January outside a Bank of America branch in Atlanta in a case of mistaken identity.
However, given the amount of Coogler’s withdrawal which exceeded $10,000, the bank teller said in a 911 dispatch call – released by TMZ - that she didn’t feel comfortable completing Coogler’s request despite the fact he inserted his debit card, correctly entered his PIN and provided proper photo identification in the form of his California driver’s license.
The teller says on the dispatch call that she ultimately alerted her manager to the situation of a suspected bank robbery, even though the dispatcher verifies on the call that Coogler’s name was "not verified" by the teller.
