Police investigating car masquerading as police vehicle

(Ed note: We originally posted a statement from the victim on Facebook, here)

Police are investigating suspicious circumstances that occurred last night in Halifax.

At approximately 9 p.m. a woman was driving on Highway 102 outbound near Lacewood Drive when another vehicle drove behind her with red and white emergency lights activated. The woman pulled over to the side of the road and the driver of the other vehicle pulled in behind her with the emergency lights still activated.

The woman and her passenger became concerned that the vehicle and its lights did not look like a real police vehicle. They did the right thing and called 911 as they drove away.

The driver of the vehicle is described as man in his 30s with a dark moustache. The vehicle is described as a black sedan with black tinted windows and red and white lights near the top of the windshield.

The incident remains under investigation.

Police are asking anyone with information in relation to this incident or video from the area to call police at 902-490-5020. Anonymous tips can be sent to Crime Stoppers by calling toll-free 1-800-222-TIPS (8477), submitting a secure web tip at www.crimestoppers.ns.ca or by using the P3 Tips app.
