Two males in Dodge pickup impersonating police officers: Langley RCMP

Darpan News Desk Langley RCMP, 28 Jan, 2021 08:24 PM
  • Two males in Dodge pickup impersonating police officers: Langley RCMP

Two men are in custody for allegedly impersonating police officers. Last night, Langley RCMP received two separate reports of a Dodge Ram truck with blue and red flashing lights in the windshield.

The first incident was reported just after 9:00 in Langley City and the second took place shortly before midnight. Shortly after midnight, officers from the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit (CFSEU) traveling on Fraser Highway in Langley observed a truck matching the description speeding westbound between 232nd and 240th Streets.

The vehicle stopped for police on 222nd Street. Both occupants were arrested and the alternating blue / red light was found on the front window of the truck. Also found in the search incidental to arrest were multiple cell phones, nearly $3500 in cash and what is believed to be bud marijuana.

The truck and contents were seized. The two males; a 19-year-old from Langley and an 18-year-old from Burnaby, were held in custody and will appear in court later today. The initial complainant believed the occupants to be impersonating Police officers and saw them pull over a Toyota Corolla. The Dodge pulled alongside the Toyota and it is believed they had a brief exchange prior to pulling away.

Investigators would like to speak with the driver of the Toyota Corolla who was seen stopped in Langley City as well as any other motorists who may have had interaction with these two males. Any such witnesses are asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.
