Alabama– an Alabama man was arrested for impersonating a police officer. The incident occurred when he pulled over a driver, but the driver became suspicious and called the real police. Quick thinking on the driver’s part helped prevent a potentially dangerous situation.
Joshua Salters, a 32-year-old man, was recently arrested in Tuscaloosa County, Alabama, for impersonating a police officer.
