Alleged Police Impersonator Arrested at Wegman's Store in Gambrils

Anne Arundel County Police today announced the arrest of an alleged police impersonator at the Wegman's Grocery Store in Gambrils. 

On April 27, 2020 at approximately 2:00 p.m., officers responded for a report of a suspicious male subject at the Wegmans located at 1413 S. Main Chapel Way in Gambrills. 

An off-duty Anne Arundel County officer was alerted to a subject who possibly displayed a handgun to an employee. Officers located the subject in the parking lot. While speaking with officers, the male told officers he was a federal law enforcement officer. Further investigation revealed the subject was not a federal law enforcement officer. 

While officers were speaking with the subject, the subject became agitated and began shouting loudly, drawing the attention of store employees and customers. A replica “Airsoft” pistol

was recovered from the subject’s backpack.

 The subject was arrested and transported to Western District for processing. 

Detectives are asking any individuals who may have had contact with the subject to call Western District Detectives at 410-222-6155.
