Barrie police say someone posing as a police officer made a traffic stop in Barrie Friday night.
It happened on Livingstone Street, north of Cundles. The fake cop was driving an old black and white police car with an older style light bar.
The driver had dark short hair, and was wearing a green shirt, tactical style pants and black boots. Police say he acted in an aggressive manner and they’re looking for witnesses or dashcam video.
This follows another incident — believed to be unrelated — in which a man showed some sort of fake badge at a collision scene.
Barrie Police say if you suspect you’re being stopped or approached by someone who is not a police officer, call 911 and they can verify whether the person is legit.
