OLD LYME, CT (CBS) The brother of former Massachusetts U.S. Senator Scott Brown was arrested Thursday night in Connecticut on a number of charges, including impersonating a police officer.
Police responding to reports of a man with a gun found Bruce W. Browne, 46, of Wolcott, Connecticut driving a blue Crown Victoria with what appeared to be a disc and antennas mounted on the trunk along with hide-away lights.
Browne was wearing military-style pants, according to police. Inside the car in plain view, officers say they found three loaded 9 mm handguns, a black nylon duty belt with two sets of handcuffs, a police baton, 12 fully-loaded magazines with a total of 101 hollow point and 102 ball 9 mm bullets.
Browne also allegedly had a black tactical bullet proof vest with the word POLICE embroidered on the front and back with a silver metal TSA badge attached.

Ptoooey on their cesspool Republicon "values." Give me good, old-fashioned American values: honesty, integrity, respect, honor.

Classmates: Mitt Romney Impersonated Police Officer In High School And College
"GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney has long contended that he's a good-humored practical jokester who is only misunderstood as stiff and over-programmed.
"As a high school student, Romney's mischievous disposition was frequently on display. Classmates told the Washington Post in a piece published last month that this sometimes led him into unpleasant territory, such as the time he and a group of friends pinned down a screaming boy -- who was presumed to be gay -- and gave him a "hack job" haircut with a pair of scissors.
"In another questionable display of his inner prankster, it now appears that Romney was also reportedly fascinated with police uniforms, which he sometimes put on to carry out elaborate practical jokes."

(28,581 posts)This is his half brother and they didn't grow up together. The may explain the last name being spelled different.
The guy sounds mentally ill, hopefully he hasn't hurt anyone and can get treatment.
