One of the suspects who allegedly posed as a fake Detroit police officer, and beat and robbed several people, may not have been faking all along.
The Detroit Police SWAT team arrested a Detroit police sergeant, a 20-year veteran of the police force, when he arrived at the 12th precinct on the city's west side. The sergeant is allegedly one of the suspects wanted in an armed robbery of Detroit citizens.

Last weekend, police said two men dressed as officers allegedly pistol-whipped customers pumping gas at the Citgo gas station near I-94 and French Road on Detroit's east side. They took off with the victims' cash and cell phones.
The suspects had police badges, guns and bulletproof vests.

As the victim answered questions from one of the men posing as a police officer, the other two rifled through the victim's car, stealing his wallet and CD's.
