A Wisconsin man has been charged with identity theft and impersonating a peace officer after prosecutors say he was caught posing as a U.S. Border Patrol agent twice in one week.
According to the Waukesha County District Attorney’s Office, prosecutors charged 34-year-old Hank Glembin of New Berlin with two counts of identity theft and two counts of impersonating a peace officer after he claimed to be a U.S. Border Patrol agent on two occasions in January.
In the complaint, obtained by FOX 6 Milwaukee, on Jan. 25, a Muskego police officer was responding to a deer that had been struck by a truck when Glembin pulled up and asked the officer if she needed assistance.
The officer then asked Glembin if he was with the Muskego Department of Public Works and declined Glembin’s offer of help, according to the complaint. Glembin then told the officer, “I’m off duty right now. I’m with Border Patrol.”
