Man suspected of impersonating police officer

PINE BLUFF — An investigation is underway into a possible case of police impersonation.

The Pine Bluff Police Department (PBPD) has released photos of two men it’s trying to identify in the case.

The PBPD says that on Dec. 3, at the Saracen Casino Annex, one of the men was found going through a bag that was in the tail bed of a pickup truck.

When the man was approached, he reportedly showed what appeared to be a badge and said he worked for the Pine Bluff Police Department.

The PBPD says the men left the Annex in what appears to be a dark-colored Chevy (early to mid 2000s model), extended cab truck, (see attached picture). According to police, the men may also be suspects in several breaking or entering of vehicles at a number of hotels in Pine Bluff.

The PBPD says it wants the public to be aware that there is an active investigation and detectives are looking for the man who is suspected of impersonating a law enforcement officer.
