Arkansas Woman Charged With Impersonating Law Enforcement Officer

An Arkansas woman was arrested during the early morning hours of May 24 after attempting to initiate traffic stops.

The woman faces charges of impersonating a law enforcement officer, using a siren/blue lamp on a motor vehicle when not responding to an emergency, resisting arrest, possession of marijuana and unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia.

One of the drivers she attempted to pull over was a retired law enforcement officer who could tell by the way she was using the blue light that she was not affiliated with any agency.

The woman and a passenger were allegedly defiant while being taken into custody. An officer had to bust the window out of the car and physically remove them from the vehicle.
