Police detective Justin Anderson of St. Augustine, Florida was driving his unmarked police vehicle last month, when he saw emergency lights behind him. The "officer" pulled up next to the detective and motioned to him to slow down and then passed him. Detective Anderson thought it was a little odd and proceeded to pull over the "police officer". Come to find out, it wasn't a real cop at all but Matthew McMahon impersonating an officer! Busted! It was dumb enough to pose as a cop, but dumber still to pull over a real police officer! Now the fake cop is in jail.
Also in June, Lt. John Deegins was on patrol in Panama City, Florida, in an unmarked car, when he was approached by Terandell Coleman. The 28-year-old Coleman was pushing a stroller carrying his baby. Coleman asked Lt. Deegins if he wanted some marijuana. The officer showed interest, so Coleman proceeded with the "sale". Coleman was arrested and charged with selling narcotics and with child neglect. But here is the strange/dumb thing... Officer Deegins was in uniform!!
