A police impersonator in a black Dodge Charger with heavy tint is terrorizing citizens in northern Georgia and southern North Carolina. Authorities in the area are warning people to be on the lookout for this suspect, asking them to call 911 and report him immediately.
Another Rolls-Royce has been stolen while being transported across the country.
Some of the police impersonator incidents have happened in Towns County, Georgia. According to the Towns County Sheriff’s Office, the suspect has a tinted cover over his license plate, concealing it. He also uses a single emergency light instead of a full light bar or lights embedded in his grille.
The suspect is a white male who is “small in stature” and has brown hair. He’s been wearing a gray and dark blue uniform along with a tactical vest that has a radio and handcuffs on it. We know many people would be fooled by someone dressed up like that, assuming they are in fact a cop.
Law enforcement agencies on all levels, municipal, county, state, and federal, hate police impersonators for obvious reasons. The most obvious is people who pretend to be cops sometimes use the perceived authority to victimize innocent civilians.
Impersonators can erode trust the police have built up in a community, which can lead to an array of policing problems. Police impersonators can also put cops in peril, too. So there’s not a lot of love lost for people who try acting like they’re an officer of the law.
No matter where you live, if you get pulled over by someone and something about their car, uniform, or even the way they act seems off, feel free to call 911 and verify they are in fact a real cop. A dispatcher can confirm the location of officers and deputies, plus they’re happy to do so.
