BALTIMORE — A 54-year-old man was arrested and charged after impersonating a police officer in Baltimore, Md.
Timothy Trivett, from Yorktown, Va., was charged Saturday night for impersonating a police officer and for possessing multiple handguns after a Maryland state trooper observed him attempting the stop, officials said.
Police said Trivett was the only occupant of a Chevy Impala that had blue and white flashing lights. Trivett attempted to conduct a traffic stop on a Honda Accord on the outer loop of I-695 at Green Spring Ave., in Baltimore.
The state trooper immediately pulled behind the Impala, made contact with the impersonating officer and then identified him as Trivett.
Police said Trivett was wearing what looked like police equipment, body armor and a uniform.
Trivett was processed at the Golden Ring Barrack, and was then transported to the Baltimore County Detention Center. He was later released on an unsecured bond, police said.
