@_FloridaMan put police lights on car so "no one would mess with him"

Hernando County deputies have arrested a man, saying he impersonated a police officer.

Authorities say they caught up with James Michael Buck, 23, during a bizarre incident on Christmas night in which a caller reported Buck tried to perform a traffic stop.

When the individual called 911, deputies say Buck was chasing that person with his black SUV and emergency-style lights flashing.

Deputies pulled Buck over and found shield-style badges in his car and wallet, along with other police gear and a DVD titled "Let's Be Cops."

Police imitators and hangers-on are some of the groups who get extra-close scrutiny in serial rape and murder cases - I bet the "police gear" includes stuff that adds up to a "rape kit".
