Man was pretending to be a Clarksburg police officer while high, troopers say
CLARKSBURG, (WBOY) — A man has been arrested and is facing misdemeanor charges after troopers with the West Virginia State Police say he was impersonating a Clarksburg Police Officer while under the influence of drugs. According to a criminal complaint, on April 14, troopers with the West Virginia State Police patrolling East Main Street in Clarksburg noticed a silver Dodge Caliber with a red headlamp hanging from the mirror, which was 'flashing as an emergency light.' When troopers approached the vehicle, they said that the driver switched off the mirror and slammed on the brakes. Troopers said they then pulled over the Caliber and made contact with the driver, Estel Bennett, 58, who told troopers that he was a Clarksburg police officer who also assists local law enforcement. Man charged with attempted murder in Morgantown stabbing After troopers found Delta 9 THC and handcuffs in Bennett's possession, he admitted that he 'had smoked marijuana' and taken non-prescribed valium earlier in the day, the complaint said. He also showed signs of impairment during a sobriety test. Troopers were also told by the Clarksburg Police Department that Bennett was not an officer or an employee with the agency. Bennett has been charged with impersonating law enforcement, possession of a controlled substance, DUI and illegally possessing a restricted lamp—all misdemeanors. He is being held in the North Central Regional Jail. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
