A story about a white man urinating on a 5-year-old black child and calling her a racial slur was fabricated, Michigan police said.
Grand Rapids police and prosecutors late Friday said they determined the story was not valid and said no charges would be issued against a 60-year-old man arrested following the initial report on Wednesday.
Police said several children, all 7 or younger, were playing together sometime before 6 p.m. Wednesday when one of the children urinated on the 5-year-old girl.
Kent County prosecutors said the parents of the children, in talking with them, ultimately determined the children "concocted the story to avoid trouble."
"We appreciate the conscientiousness of the parents in bringing the matter to the attention of the police, and continuing to ask their children questions as new evidence was obtained," prosecutors said.
Prosecutors said the 60--year-old man had a "verifiable alibi" from other people who vouched for his whereabouts.

Parents, those folks with real instincts, got the truth out of these lying kids.....which amounted to a "gang of kids seven and under."
Praise be to God for the good parents!
Who’s the racist now, NAACP?
signed a privileged “non-white” American
Tawana Brawley all over again. Thank goodness it didn’t go that far.
Thank God he had a “verifiable alibi”.
It’s to the credit of the parents that the truth was disclosed.
He was a convicted sex offender. Most people including those professionals would tend to believe the children. However, professionals also questioned why he would do such a thing ( apparently not his m.o.) and did the legwork to verify his alibi.
The perpetrator needs to be watched. That is a bizarre thing to do.
Children under seven have already learned to accuse whitey of using racial slurs and abusive behavior?
SOB! I totally fell for that story. When am i ever going to learn?
Train them when they are young......
Breaking News!
Children will lie and make up stories to avoid getting into trouble, more at 11
That’s why we have innocent until proven guilty.
It says the kids urinated on the girl....which implies the rest of the kids were all boys.
Nasty little sh(ts.
They learn young, don’t they?
Sheesh.......
Thank God the truth came out.
Not a single W-2 in the future for any of that bunch, I’d wager...
With the race hoaxes the division to get the ratio of hoax to real incident only involves dividing a number into itself and the answer to that is always 1.
This also means if there is a race incident being spread by the media you don't have to think 'oh well let's see there is a 45.6543 percent chance this one really happened.'
You can just read about the incident the day it's reported and then take your handy predictive 1.0 that results from dividing a number into itself and say 'it's a hoax.' You don't even have to say 'well there's a good or even very good chance it's a hoax.'
It's like a racio rather than a ratio.
When it comes to a "hate crime", I am always suspicious.
