STOW, Ohio (WJW) – A man charged with making racist threats toward a Black delivery driver at an apartment complex in Stow has been served with a notice to vacate the premises.

Kiauna Larkins says just after 7 p.m. on April 17, she was delivering food to the Wyndham Ridge Apartments in Stow. 

Larkins realized a man was following her, so she stopped her car and started recording.

That’s when she encountered Thomas Rhodes, 53.

“You’re a dumb, Black f—–, n—-, b—-, F— you!  Yeah, I’m racist and I’m a racist M—– F—–,” the man says in the video.

“I got an AK-47, right now in my f——, g—d— car…I’ll blow your f——- head off.”

“F— you and everybody that looks like you…what are they gonna come arrest me?” continued Rhodes.

Rhodes is charged with misdemeanor aggravated menacing and a felony of ethnic intimidation.
