It turns out the case of a man RCMP thought was impersonating himself as a police officer was really an RCMP constable afterall.
In a release, the Mounties say the off-duty constable saw a woman walking her dog along Ferry Road that was not well lit on Saturday evening and stopped to advise her about safety considering it was dark. He pointed out she should have been walking on the other side of the road facing traffic.
The woman could not see the officer’s uniform and left the scene before he had a chance to talk to her about safety.
The officer provided dash-cam video that captured the incident.
RCMP have followed up by contacting the woman who is thankful the officer was concerned about her safety.
