A 35-year-old man from Lugoj was detained for impersonating a police officer and intimidating a driver during a traffic stop. The incident occurred in early October when he claimed to be on patrol and demanded the driver's documents, alleging a malfunction with the vehicle's lights. After the driver fixed the issue, the impersonator falsely stated he would issue a hefty fine without providing any documentation, causing fear. The police identified and arrested the suspect, who will spend 24 hours in custody while investigations continue under the supervision of a prosecutor.
