Firefighter arrested on cop impersonation charges. Former West Virginia chief accused of pulling woman over.

My experience with this blog is those firefighters who find trouble with blue lights tend to be on the younger side. Ernest Morrison doesn't fit that pattern. He is 53-years-old and the former chief of the Salt Rock Volunteer Fire Department in Cabell County, West Virginia. According to herald-dispatch.com, Morrison was arrested Thursday and charged with "misdemeanor impersonation, assault and reckless driving". He is described as an active member of the department.

Here's more from the article:

The charges seem out of character for the man who once served as chief of the Salt Rock department, according to Salt Rock Volunteer Fire Chief Darrell Ennis.

The allegations stem from an incident that reportedly occurred at 6:55 a.m. Tuesday where a woman claims pulled over believing the driver of a truck was a police officer. The driver cursed and threatened the woman, which eventually led her to call 911.
