Binghamton police say they believe a man concocted a story about being robbed at gunpoint.

Authorities say 45-year-old Osborn Young of Binghamton has been charged with falsely reporting an incident.

Young had told investigators he was robbed on August 30 near 165 Robinson Street.

Although there apparently had been a dispute involving Young and other people, police say they've determined that no gun was displayed and no money was taken.

Young was ordered to appear in Binghamton City Court to answer the charge.
