#CrimeCamNow ACWORTH, Ga. - The Acworth Police Department said a man was arrested and charged for impersonating an officer and improperly using emergency lights. Acworth Police say it was the man's car that first caught their attention. Then they saw his uniform. It looked much like one of their own. Investigators say he even had a utility belt complete with a radio and magazines for a gun. When Acworth Police Chief Wayne Dennard saw the driver of a car turn on red and white flashing emergency lights to make his way through traffic, he had on of his officers pull him over. Police body camera video shows the chief asking the driver about the lights. The suspect, 33-year-old Jerardson Mackey, said the uniform is for his company, a funeral escort service. Mackey told officers he has the badge because he's an off-duty HERO operator. Mackey was initially cited for unlawful operation of an emergency vehicle. But after further investigation, detectives learned he hasn't been a HERO operator since January when GDOT fired him. Mackey was later charged with Impersonating a public officer.
