MARION, Ind. (WISH) - Police in Marion have made an arrest on a man who was pretending to be an officer.
A woman reported a man in an unmarked SUV pulled her over just after 7 p.m. Monday night.
She says the phony officer asked for her license and registration and even her infant childs' social security card and birth certificate.
Police tell 24-Hour News 8 this the second time someone has reported being pulled over by an imposter within the past few days.
“It’s just not normal for an average citizen to be stopping somebody impersonating an officer without some type of ill intent in mind,” said Deputy Chief Cliff Sessoms with the Marion Police Department.
Police arrested Shawn Martin, 30, on a warrant for impersonation of a public servant Wednesday. This is in connection to the incident that occurred on Nov. 2 when a resident reported he was stopped by a suspect who represented himself as a law enforcement officer.
