Police Searching For Man Who Allegedly Caused Crash While Impersonating Officer

The Canadian Press, 21 Sep, 2017 01:09 PM
    TORONTO — Police in Toronto are looking for a man who allegedly caused a collision while impersonating an officer.
     
    They say witnesses reported that a man dressed in a police officer's uniform was directing traffic while dancing in a west-end intersection last Saturday.
     
    Investigators say the man's attempt at directing traffic resulted in a collision between two vehicles, in which no one was injured.
     
    The man is described as approximately six feet tall with a thin build.
     
    At the time of the incident he was wearing a police hat, police vest with "POLICE" written on the front and back, a gun belt, a dark-coloured short-sleeved police uniform shirt, dark-coloured shorts, white socks and black dress shoes.
     
    Investigators are asking anyone who witnessed or recorded the incident to contact police.
