Suspect who impersonated police officer is in custody, authorities say

A man is in custody after Illinois police say he was caught on homeowners' cameras impersonating a police officer.

The impersonator, described as being in his 20s, had a fake badge and a police scanner or scanner app on his phone when he approached homes in the Chicago area on Monday and Tuesday, authorities said. "Hi, sorry to bother you so late," the man says in one homeowner video obtained by Chicago ABC affiliate WLS. The man introduced himself as an investigator with the Winfield Police Department.

Mental health is wealth

Motive? Other than simplemindedness?

I assume he is a liberal Democrat as well....

I'd tell kid to go back home and do his homework before I call his parents. lol

WTF! THIS IS SO CREEPY!

Losers really should seek help instead of pretending to be who they are not

If only this kid invested this much time and effort into something productive. 🤔

Watching the watcher

He though, his 😅😅 FrankWilliamAbagnaleJr. LeoDiCaprio catchmeifyoucan

CSI Miami wannabe. He's still got bumfluff on his gonads.

With a white tie 😂

More like going to a Prom

He looks way too young to be a detective for starters. I'm now only wondering why someone would be stupid enough to do this.

Evidently they were 'casing' homes to see who was home.

Wow... I guess they literally took to wanting to be police officers.. I am glad they are caught and hope the fourth one not too far away from being caught..Kids they used to play cops and robbers etc, but they would never go to a person home and acts on it.

If I had opened the door, I would have take kiked ass and then I should to say, 'you are detective, I m the football player for this I kick something, in front on the door' ⚽🏈⚽🏈⚽

he looks 12

Nice touch having a police scanner playing over a smartphone. I catch someone doing this and they’ll see my gun and wear my handcuffs.

He needs to go to jail for a while where he can impersonate being an inmate.🤨

Creepy people. What detective wears a button-up shirt and no tie?

Kinky

A democrat 😂😂😂😂🇺🇸😂

Would have been more believable if he wore a tie or didn't button the top button. He just looks like a kid who can't tie a tie.

he doesn't fit the profile of law enforcement officer at all. 😂what a joke😂

Wasn't he part of the talentless boy band one direction?

Ralph Macchio is STRUGGLING.

Does his mom and dad know he is trying to play cop

I don't answer my door to anyone I don't know. Bloop.

Omg thank God they had a door bell camera

Please alert your elderly friends and family members. They are the most vulnerable in situations like these.

Dude a spy.

Casing homes to rob?

Some new perversion, mental disorder, or acting on a dare?

Dressed as a detective? Dressed more like someone's prom date!

Did he get that badge from a box of cereal?

Sure he'll be seeing alot of guns in jail.

Was it Paul Ciolino?

And why is he doing this exactly?

What detective looks like he just hit puberty? Come on, folks! Think for a sec before you open the door!

But...the purpose? Were they looking for victims to rob?

He looks like he's 19. Creepy. Keep in mind that you can always call the police department and ask them if he came from their office. If not, ask them to deploy a marked car to your house before you even think about opening the door.

Auditioning for Law & Order: Idiotic Intent.

Make sure he's on track 👍

so a young start up investigation agency made the news maybe that's his gig that's who he was today what if that's only fucked up to you because he's doing it from the ground up that is how to start an investigation agency and you've got him on the news
