Police Search for Robbers Who Pose As Cops

2008_09_bklynsusp.jpgThe police released photographs of three men suspected of impersonating police officers during robberies in Brooklyn. According to WABC 7, "Detectives say the men walked into a building on McDonald Avenue, pulled out guns, and displayed police badges." They also handcuffed their victims before robbing them. Their images were captured on a surveillance camera and the suspects are described as "white males in their 30s." Police are asking for people with any information to call Crimestoppers (800-577-TIPS) or to text 274637 and enter "TIP577."
