Police released a sketch of the man accused of impersonating a police officer in Jefferson County, before trying to order a 20-year-old woman out of her car on Monday.
The woman reported driving in the area of South Wadsworth Boulevard and West Bowles Avenue, when a man driving a black and white “patrol style” car, with a red and blue light bar, pulled up behind her, according to a news release from the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office.
The man flipped on the lights and the woman pulled over. He then approached the woman’s car and ordered her to get out.
When she refused, he yelled again prompting the woman to call her parents. The man then ran back to his car. He was last seen heading eastbound on Bowles Avenue.
The woman described the car as a police style sedan, with an “older bubble style red and blue light bar on the roof.”
The woman described the man as having short brown hair, brown eyes, heavy set with a “belly” and a graying mustache.
He was wearing black pants, a black shirt with “Police” across the chest and “Sheriff” on the left sleeve, as well as a black baseball hat.
The Sheriff’s Office is working with Aurora police, after a woman was allegedly sexually assaulted by two men impersonating officers early Sunday morning.
A woman driving in the 10400 block of East Alameda Avenue was pulled over by a car, similar to the description given in Jefferson County.
A man approached her door and ordered her out of her car. At some point, a second man joined him, and the two sexually assaulted the woman on the sidewalk of Alameda Avenue.
The two suspects then got back in their car and fled the scene.
The first suspect was described as being 30 to 40 years old, 6 feet, 1 inch tall with black spiked hair. He had no facial hair at the time of the attack.
The second man was described as being 40 to 50 years old, 5 feet, 6 inches to 5 feet, 8 inches tall, with gray hair, a thick mustache and a “potbelly.”
Aurora police are offering an award of up to $2,500 for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the two suspects.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to call sex crimes Detective Ron Hahn at 303-739-6066.
