Bad choices? A man impersonating a police officer attempted to pull over a pickup truck that happened to be driven by a real deputy chief, authorities in Louisiana said. Justin Marshall, 36, of Slidell, was taken into custody shortly after the incident on Interstate 10. Marshall, the SUV's driver, activated flashing blue lights he'd mounted on his vehicle to initiate a fake traffic stop, Veal said. Ignoring the impersonator's maneuver, the deputy initiated a legitimate traffic stop.
