AURORA, Colo. (AP) — An Aurora man who was pulled over in Denver in a white Crown Victoria with emergency lights and a pushbar in April says he wasn't trying to impersonate a police officer.
Elchin Dadashov says he drives the car and wears a tidy black uniform because he's a security guard for several marijuana shops.
Sentinel Colorado reports the Azerbaijan native has wanted to become a police officer since he was 10 and had signed up to volunteer with the Aurora Police Department.
Still, some say his appearance was indistinguishable from a police officer, and he should have been charged.
