STAFFORD COUNTY, Va. -- After someone posing a police officer walked into a Stafford County home and held two people at gunpoint, authorities in that county want you to be familiar with police uniforms.
The crime happened at 9:15 p.m. Tuesday at a home on Riggs Road in the Leeland Station subdivision. A white man, 5 feet 10 inches tall, with short, dark hair, weighing between 250 and 285 pounds, between 35 and 45-years-old, knocked on the door of the house. When the home occupants answered, the man displayed a gun and forced the two into the interior section of the house, said Stafford sheriff’s spokesman Bill Kennedy.
But the two were able to escape and fled to a neighbor’s house where they called 911. The man posing as a police officer also got away.
