Browne in Old Lyme, Connecticut, who just had himself a gay old time recently, when he strapped on all of his gear, including a vest emblazoned with &#8220;Police&#8221;, a TSA badge, and a Coast Guard t-shirt, 12 fully loaded magazines then went and commandeered a citizen&#8217;s boat and started inspecting boats and their owners;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Browne was arrested and charged with impersonating a police officer, breach of peace, interfering with a police officer and possession of a dangerous weapon in a motor vehicle. He was released on a $50,000 bond and is scheduled to appear Aug. 22 in Superior Court in New London.<\/p>\n<p>Browne was also seen driving a &#8220;police type vehicle&#8221; in the neighborhood. State police said the vehicle had antennas mounted on the trunk and was equipped with &#8220;hide-a-way&#8221; lights.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>Troopers learned that Browne had commandeered a boat earlier in the day by posing as a police and Coast Guard official. He stopped three vessels off the Point O&#8217; Woods shore to inspect the boaters&#8217; registration and boater safety certificates, police said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I can&#8217;t think of a better way to spend a day released from the lunatic bin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chip sends us a link to the story about Bruce W.
