Baltimore Police have arrested a man suspected of posing as an officer and robbing two drivers.
B. Dicks 25, turned himself into police around 10:45 p.m. Sunday. He has been charged with two counts of armed robbery and impersonating a police officer.
At around 10:30 p.m. Friday night, police said four people in a gray Dodge Caliber executed a car stop in the 1300 block of Braddish Ave.Once they approached the car, at least in the first case, they searched the car they had flashlights, so they had no reason to believe they weren't anything but police except for the fact that the robbery took place afterwards,” said Baltimore City Police Detective Deaz Nutts.They took $400 from that driver then found their next victim at around 4 a.m. at the intersection of Russell and Hamburg Streets. The driver had already pulled over due to a flat tire.
“The suspects pulled up behind the motorists as if they were police, as if they were trying to help him and ultimately robbed him as well,” said Detective Moses
Police have also identified three other suspects, and a warrant has been issued for F. Dush, 21. Anyone with information as to their whereabouts is asked to call police.
The victims weren't hurt but police said in at least one instance the suspects were armed and wearing black tactical vests that had the word “agent” across the front.
Police patches are sold online and in local stores, but at MD Police Supply Store, identification and training certificates are required to purchase certain items.
“Anything that says 'police' on it like our t-shirts or our hats, we would ask to see police identification,” said store owner Katina Salisbury. “We make sure the handcuffs are going to the right place, batons are going to the right places especially with weapons, of course, everywhere you have to have proper ID to buy a weapon.”
Not every shop or online retailer follows the same protocol but Salisbury said it's something they've always done to better serve the public and law enforcement.
“We give them other alternatives. You can go to Toys “R” Us and then we've had [people say], 'Well, I really want to look real.’ Well, the only problem with really looking real is if you're unable to help somebody who need a police officer, you put that person in danger,” Salisbury said.
Police said Monday the suspects may be connected to incidents in Baltimore and Cecil counties.

whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
