Schoolboy arrested for pretending to be a police officer

Posted by: admin , March 26, 2015

A teenager has been arrested in China for pretending to be a police officer by wearing a homemade uniform and carrying a fake ID and weapons to arrest thieves at his local market.
It’s reported that police caught Wang Shih (16) driving a car modified to look like a police car, complete with a detachable blue flashing light on top of the vehicle.
Upon arresting Wang, police found replicas of a police baton, handcuffs and a modified gun.
At the precinct, police were not fooled when Wang said he was an officer from a local precinct, as they immediately noticed that his uniform was from a costume shop, nor was he wearing his uniform (as is required) in the photo he used for his fake ID.
Police were also not impressed when Wang claimed to have made several ‘civilian arrests’.
Wang says that he was simply living out his dream of being a policeman and didn’t want to wait any longer when he found out he was too young to join the force.
