MILWAUKEE, Nov. 26 (UPI) -- A Milwaukee man, 19, was arrested for impersonating a police officer after driving a car that had red and blue flashing lights and bars on the rear windows.
Officers said the car, red in color, was outfitted like an unmarked police car. In addition to the interior lights and bars, it had a public address system, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Sunday.
Police spotted the car during the weekend when it passed a squad car. Officers followed and pulled the car over, said Capt. Gregory Habeck.
An 18-year-old female was with the 19-year-old, who was not identified.
Police said they were not aware of any unsolved crimes involving the impersonation of an officer, which is a Class A misdemeanor with a maximum nine-month jail sentence.
