A 37 year old Kitchener man has been charged for impersonating a police officer.

On Wednesday, August 27th, police received several complaints about a man selling water heaters being belligerent and pushy.

A resident got into a disagreement with the salesman and said he was going to call the police.

The salesman stated that he didn’t have to call the police because he was one.

When asked his name, he identified himself as one of the officers who had dealt with him earlier in the day.

Police located the salesman in the area and arrested him.

James Storton will appear in a Windsor court September 25th.
