19-Year-Old Wearing Police Gear Arrested for Impersonating Deputy, Pulling Over Cars In a shocking case of impersonation, a 19-year-old Tennessee man was arrested by Oklahoma police for allegedly posing as a sheriff's deputy and conducting unauthorized traffic stops in January. According to the Oklahoma County Sheriff, Jackson Jones was caught dressed in full police gear, including a vest emblazoned with "sheriff," handcuffs, knives, and a duty belt complete with a flashlight. However, Jones had no actual authority as a law enforcement officer. Multiple witnesses reported that Jones exhibited alarming behavior, acting as if he was on official duty in his personal KIA sedan. He is accused of aggressively pulling over unsuspecting drivers and subjecting them to questioning during these illegal traffic stops. Jones' dangerous charade was ultimately foiled when he was taken into custody and slapped with charges of impersonating an officer as well as transporting an open container. 19-year-old, police gear, impersonating deputy, pulling over cars, arrest, police impersonation, fake law enforcement, criminal charges, public safety, law enforcement abuse
