Man was arrested for impersonating a police officer

July 10, 2017 by Staff News Writer

On Saturday night, officers of the Public Force of the canton of Goicoechea arrested a subject who identified himself as an agent of the Fiscal Control Police (PCF) of the Ministry of Finance.

The incident happened in Calle Blancos, in a house located in Lotes Volio when the authorities came to deal with a tenancy problem.

A 36-year-old man, Tylor, entered the house where the incident was being handled, so the Public Force requested his identity documents.

According to police reports, the man was carrying a PCF card but checking with the Treasury, they found that it was a forged document.

In addition, the suspect had a suitcase with a uniform of the Public Force that was already confiscated.
