Not sure what the irony is, the fact that someone actually got pulled over in the county, or the fact that they were looking for a black man. We've only got one!

The Ohio State Highway Patrol says a man impersonating a police officer pulled a driver over in Morrow County claiming he was looking for a black male suspect.

It happened on County Road 29 around 8:30pm Wednesday night.

The driver described the suspect as a clean shaven white man with a black polo shirt with a gold star on the left chest pocket and a black hat with a gold star. The suspect approached the car on the passenger side and shined his flashlight in the mirror, so the driver did not get a good look at his face.

The suspect was driving a black Dodge Charger with a red flashing light on the dash. The vehicle did not have a license plate or any markings.

The Patrol says the suspect asked the driver for proof of identity and then told him to move along.

In high school one of my friends got one of the magnetic flashing lights that plugs into the cigarette lighter. He used to drive around and if he found parkers he would turn the light on an pull up behind them. He had lots of fun until the cops caught him. Back then it wasn't a big deal, iirc they took his light but didn't arrest him.
