"We understand how concerning this can be for members of our community, Jimenez said. We want to assure residents that impersonating a law enforcement officer is a crime and the San Diego Police Department takes any reports of this nature very seriously."
"The man said the manager was in the country illegally and claimed he was detaining the manager, Jimenez said."
"The 40-year-old man was booked on suspicion of impersonating an officer and battery, according to online arrest records."
Around noon a man entered a University City McDonald's on Novel Drive near Genesee Avenue and grabbed the manager from behind, wrapping an arm around the employee's neck. The man claimed the manager was in the country illegally and that he was detaining the manager. Coworkers and security guards intervened and forced the man out of the store. San Diego police were called and determined the man was not a law enforcement officer. Impersonating a law enforcement officer is treated as a crime by the San Diego Police Department. A 40-year-old man was booked on suspicion of impersonating an officer and battery. Investigators requested anyone with information contact Det. Sgt. Nick Zastrow at (858) 552-1756.
