In Albuquerque, NM an officer on routine patrol noticed a car pulled over. The car that pulled the vehicle over was not a standard patrol or detective car.
This just didn’t look right. The officer pulled up and began to speak with the 18 yo goof. He had a Bernalillo County Sheriff’s badge on his belt and blue and red wig-wags on his car. He had no ID, but had a pistol and duty belt in his car.
Stopping people without the authority could be hazardous to your health
After being placed in the back of the police unit he admitted that he wasn’t a cop and had purchased the badge “on line.”
This fool is charged with “impersonating a police officer” and may face up to 364 days in the slammer and a hefty fine. Hope he gets the max!
Peace
