SUMMARY: A Winchester woman, Z Strode, experienced a frightening encounter on her way to work when she was pulled over by a man impersonating a police officer. The incident occurred on September 18th as she drove on I-64, where the individual claimed to be a detective but lacked any official identification, such as a uniform or badge, and was aggressive. Strode emphasizes the importance of being aware of one’s surroundings and advises others to verify an officer’s identity by checking their license plate and calling the police if something feels off. Her Facebook post on the incident has since gained over 700 shares.

When pulled over, the man wanted her to keep her hands on the wheels and never asked for any ID or registration, which raised red flags.
