Pretending to be officers of the law landed three men in hot water with the actual law when they were stopped by the police in Brakpan last Wednesday evening.
The trio, travelling in a white Nissan NP300 bakkie, was arrested by members of the Ekurhuleni SAPS Task Team on Heidelberg Road (R23) following a tip-off.
“Members stopped the vehicle and the three occupants were searched. Police found a set of blue lights, reflectors, two sets of number plates and R1 rifle ammunition,” said Brakpan SAPS spokesperson Capt Pearl van Staad.
The men were arrested for impersonating police officers.
