Heard on the airwaves of 52 Division in Toronto, the busiest division on Toronto, story is broken only on this site!
A 24 year old man, identified himself as a “Canadian Federal Agent” to a parking attendant at a local lot located at Festival Hall in downtown Toronto, it seems his Credit Card was declining in the exit gate. He stepped out of his White Crown Victoria (which had the CVPI badge on the back) and identified himself as a federal agent and that he should be let out for free immediatly. The attendant, stalled, and contacted Toronto Police Service who arrived to find that the man was impersonating an officer, was carrying a fake badge and had a scanner in the centre console. He was arrested and taken to 52 division where he was charged with impersonating a police officer and fraud for attempting to use a cancelled credit card.
Did I saw I was a canadian Federal Agent?? I meant I am the agent for Canadian-Federal a new grunge rock band made up of hobos that travel from town to town on CN rail cars! I follow along in my Crown Vic to set up the gigs man!
I wonder if this is the same joker that parks (or, I guess, used to park) in my building? There’s been a P71 CVPI there every day for quite awhile that’s got a TPS badge on the dash and antennas and such. I have pics, don’t worry! Anyway, it hasn’t been around lately. Wonder if it’s one and the same?
I can’t find any mention of this on any of the usual news outlets or on the TPS website…. where’d this story come from?
Wasn’t that huge a deal, I heard it on 52 on the weekend, guy at festival hall claims ot be a fed and flashes a badge, dude running the place got suspicious and called the cops, then they haul his ass in
Glad to hear it wasn’t Mike 🙂
