Rainbow City Police Investigating Social Media Report

Police are investigating social media content, regarding actions of a man apparently posing as an officer in the Rainbow City area.

Acting Police Chief Jonathon Horton says police have not received an actual report but have seen mention of an alleged incident on Facebook, with a post claiming that someone in that person’s family was pulled over by a man driving a truck.

That post stated (quote) “…he had red and blue lights, and a microphone to announce to my family member ‘You have thirty seconds to get out of the vehicle.’ Be careful!!!” (end-quote)

Horton said the department posted a notice on its Facebook page asking for information.

Horton said “There’s no description of the truck, what color it is, or where it happened…we just want the public to be aware, and see what we could find out.”
