WASHINGTON — Police in Montgomery County want to know if residents interacted with a teen trying to pass himself off as a police officer.
“I was shocked at his demeanor and his boldness,” said Fourth District Commander Laura Lanham. “It really does give me pause.”
Police arrested 19-year-old Philip Jonathan Ross, of Dickerson, Maryland, for impersonating a police officer on June 12 after an officer saw a white Ford Crown Victoria driving at a high rate of speed and using its emergency white and red lights as if they were sirens.
Several cars did move out of the way for the speeding vehicle and at one point the car even attempted to back up another officer making a traffic stop.

They were shocked because he was doing such a good job!
He cleared several open cases, issued loads of tickets, arrested 23 drug dealers, and did it all during 1 shift, without a donut or nap!
It sounds like a scholarship to the police academy is in order.
Shall we call him Mahoney (from Police Academy for those who are too young) or do you think he's too lazy to make it through?
Hilarious
Sounds like the real cops were jealous!!
Brent Black has been impersonating a police officer for years. Why not snatch him up?
Mike Lewis pretends to be a sheriff, but he is actually a media whore!
Bring him to Salisbury maybe he would be able to catch the crown Vic boys
