Man Posing As Policeman Stops Woman In Essex Again

[Henry]

Essex Police are on the lookout for a man who appears to be impersonating a cop.

Police say that a woman was driving on River Road near Sandhill Road in Essex at about 2:30 yesterday afternoon when a light blue longer car came up behind her and activated a red light and siren. She pulled over and the man driving the other car asked for her license and registration. He then returned the documents and told her she was free to go.

The woman provided a sketch of the suspect. He's described as being between 25 and 30-years-old, tall and skinny with a buzz cut, a light mustache and green eyes.

Anyone with information, or who may have experienced a similar incident, is asked to call Essex Police at 878-8331.

There were a number of suggestions in the previous post a while back on things you could do if something like this happened to you.  The main one was that a red light is not a cop here in Vermont.  A cop here in Vermont has a blue light.

Essex Police say they now know who the man posing as a policeman is, but have not arrested him as yet.
