Agents with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) arrested Bobbie Lei Sales, 35, of Cantonment, for falsely impersonating a police officer, the FDLE said.
According to the FDLE, its agents began their investigation in May after receiving information that Sales allegedly identified herself as an FDLE agent. The investigation reportedly revealed that Sales visited a victim’s home and presented a silver badge while wearing a firearm.
“She told the victim that he was under investigation and said she would be back in a couple of weeks to search his home,” the FDLE said.
