He didn&#8217;t stop there. He actually went out and tried to play cop. He ended up pulling a real undercover detective over. The real detective contacted 911 and reported the phony law enforcement vehicle. Not long after this, the phony deputy got pulled over.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">From USA Today:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Hillsborough County Sheriff&#8217;s Office (Facebook)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>OOPS: When 26-year-old Matthew Joseph Erris decided to play cop, turn on his red and blue lights and pull somebody over, he had no idea the other driver was a REAL undercover HCSO detective! Deputies did a REAL traffic stop on Erris. They found an airsoft pistol under his passenger seat. Erris is now facing a charge for impersonating a law enforcement officer.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s unclear how many times he has done this in the past. Anyone who recognizes his vehicle and believes they may have been a victim should contact the Hillsborough County Sheriff&#8217;s Office at 813-247-8200<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>You can read more at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/story\/news\/nation\/2019\/04\/22\/florida-man-arrested-impersonating-police-officer\/3536759002\/\">USA Today<\/a> and that <a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2019\/04\/22\/us\/florida-man-fake-deputy-arrest\/index.html\">CNN<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Matthew Joseph Erris had the works on his vehicle: red and blue lights in the grill, &hellip; <a title=\"Phony Deputy Pulled Real Detective Over\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=86415\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Phony Deputy Pulled Real Detective Over<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":661,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[209,227],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-86415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-teh-stoopid","category-police"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86415","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/661"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=86415"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86415\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=86415"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=86415"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=86415"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
