NEW YORK, NY – A fake cop got violent when his police impersonation routine went south during an attempted robbery.
On December 11th, two men met near 21st Avenue and 83rd Street in Brooklyn to complete an online sale transaction at around 5:35 pm.
During the transaction, the buyer claimed to be a police officer and assaulted the 29-year-old seller, punching him in the face. The police impersonator then robbed the victim and fled the scene.
NYPD detectives released a video of the incident and are asking the public to assist in identifying the assailant.
