RCMP in Williams Lake are cautioning motorists after an individual was warned to cease attempting an impersonation of a police officer.
Staff Sgt. Del Byron says the individual who had most recently been seen attempting to stop traffic on Highway 97 north of McLeese Lake while driving a 2004 white Crown Victoria wearing a fake sheriff’s name tag and badge is known to police.
He reminds the public to be aware that real police cars will almost always have blue and red lights, and that officers, even in undercover vehicles will be in full uniform.
