Pittsburgh Police arrested a man this week they say was impersonating a first responder in Oakland.
Court documents say Patrick Barton pulled up behind an off-duty police sergeant with emergency lights flashing.
Barton reportedly told another officer he is an assistant fire chief in Avalon, but admitted he wasn't heading to a fire.
Barton is now facing charges including impersonating a public servant.
He is also facing theft and receiving stolen property charges in Ross Township.
