A Police imposter with an illegal firearm was apprehended in Pretoria following reports of suspicion.

MAN REPORTED WEARING SAPS UNIFORM

Fidelity ADT’s Community Operations Manager received information about a suspicious male dressed in a SAPS uniform in Irving Street, Queenswood walking towards Lynette Street.

Upon arrival, he found the individual dressed in almost full SAPS uniform and he had a firearm on his right-side hip.

“He immediately called for back-up from SAPS and another security partner.”

The team approached the individual who stated he wasn’t an officer and he had borrowed the uniform from someone for a bachelor’s party.

POLICE IMPOSTER DRAWS HIS FIREARM

Fidelity ADT reports that the suspect then drew his side arm which led to all teams immediately responding by taking him down with necessary force and eventually detaining him.

“He was taken to the SAPS Villieria where a case of impersonating a police officer, possession of an illegal firearm and pointing of firearm was opened,” the report read.
