Deputies are still trying to find a police impersonator who pulled a woman over in Weld County on Sunday.
The man had a red Chevrolet Tahoe truck with red lights on the inside of the car, near the visor, she said. He not only pulled the 20-year-old woman over, he detained her for almost an hour and searched her car before he let her go, she said.
He asked to see her driver's license and registration, telling the woman that he had reason to believe that her car was stolen. This incident occurred at about 4:30 p.m. on Weld County Road 74, between county roads 33 and 35, the Weld County Sheriff's Office said.
The young woman called police and helped them make a composite sketch that was released to the public.
The man is said to be white, between 35 and 40 years old. He has black curly hair and is about 5 feet 8 inches tall. He was wearing a blue uniform with a star badge on his shirt pocket, a black belt with equipment attached and sunglasses.
Anyone who has information on the man or the case is asked to call the Weld County Sheriff's Office at 970-365-4015.
If you're pulled over by an unmarked vehicle and it feels suspicious, you can protect yourself by turning on your hazard lights and the dome light inside your car, drive to a well-lit public area and ask for a marked unit.
If the officer resists, that signals something's wrong and you should call 911 to tell authorities that you've been pulled over, police said.
