UndercoverCopCars

In Michigan, a 24 year old man got a big surprise one night when he was having fun driving his disguised SUV through Ann Arbor. It turns out, he had fitted his truck with a bunch of goodies like undercover police lights along with a police siren. It was all fun until he makes the mistake of pulling over another vehicle that happened to be a real undercover cop car.

Police reports state that two uniformed police officers were on patrol in their unmarked car that Monday morning when they witnessed a car driving at high speeds through the Arch Street intersection around 2:40am. The undercover police officers followed the fast moving car in their vehicle, but quickly spotted an SUV in their rear view mirror quickly approaching with flashing police lights and sirens. The unmarked police officers pulled over to make way for the SUV, thinking it was a marked police cruiser that was pursuing the other speeding vehicle. To the officer’s surprise, the SUV pulled up next to them as the driver began shouting to drive more carefully for nearly hitting his friends that were in the other speeding vehicle.

When the driver saw two uniformed police officers in their unmarked car through the window, his night of fun was quickly over as he was arrested on the spot by the two Ann Arbor police officers. He now faces felony charges for impersonating a police officer which might land him up to 4 years in jail.

The police will be sure to equip some more undercover cop cars thanks to you Shelby, as we are sure they will put to use the lights and sirens they confiscated from your SUV in some of their unmarked cars.
