LADIES BEWARE!
Two women were sexually assaulted by a man posing as an officer in two different cities just hours apart on Friday. Now investigators in Atlanta and Cobb County believe the same man could be behind the attacks. Investigators told Channel 2’ news that the impostor cop wears a uniform and drives a police cruiser lookalike.
The first incident happened around 1 a.m. A 25-year old woman was driving along Nash Road in northwest Atlanta when thought she was being pulled over by a police officer.
Instead she was sexually assaulted. Delk said: “He opened her door, grabbed her and he actually fondled and molested her and didn’t let her leave.”
The description of the suspect strikingly similar: a white man in his 30s, more than 6 feet tall with brown hair.
According to Channel 2 news, Police gave a few recommendations to consider when pulling over for an officer who is conducting a traffic stop:
Pull over in a public area.
Find a well lit area so the officer can see you and you can see the officer. Turn on your hazard lights, slow down, and find the best location available to pull over.
You do not have to roll your window all the way down in order to speak to an officer or give an officer your driver’s license and proof of insurance.
If you suspect the individual is not an actual officer, call 911 immediately and give your location and a description of the suspect and suspect vehicle if visible. Stay on the phone with the 911 operator until an officer arrives to assist you.
