Possible Officer Impersonation

On 1/14/2018 the Pope County Sheriff’s Office received a report of a possible officer impersonation in the area of the 4100 Block of North Arkansas Avenue. The victim stated that a dark colored Dodge Charger with blue and white dash lights initiated a traffic stop on her. She described the suspect as a tall, white, slender male wearing a dark uniform with no badge or patches, and wearing a hat similar to a State Trooper. Our deputies checked and determined that no local officer had initiated the stop through dispatch. Sheriff Jones would like to remind citizens that should they ever be unsure of a stop that it is ok to slow and proceed to a well illuminated area before stopping. If any citizen has information relating to this case, please call the Pope County Sheriff’s Office at 479-968-2558…
