One driver last week had a rather unusual encounter with the law. A man posing as a police officer forced him to pull over, climbed onto the hood of the vehicle, and reported yelled at the driver to “apologize to Jesus” for speeding.

On the morning of February 26th, the trucker was driving northbound on I-43 in Wisconsin when a black BMW started flashing his headlights at him, pulling in front of him and slowing down, and flashing his blinkers. Finally, the BMW got in front of the truck and slowed to 10mph, so the driver called the police and pulled to the side of the road.





The BMW driver, Haris Mackic, told the trucker that he was a police officer, shouted at him that he had been speeding, then jumped onto the hood of the truck, snapped off the antenna and started yelling at the driver to “apologize to Jesus” for speeding.

When the real police showed up however, Mackic didn’t call it quits. He told the deputy that he was a police officer and had pulled the truck over because it was going above the 70mph speed limit. When the officer called his bluff and asked him which department he worked for, Mackic responded that he worked for the same one as the deputy and continued claiming that he was a police officer.

The driver informed the officer that he was not speeding and that his truck has a speed governor set to 64 miles per hour.

Mackic was arrested and charged with misdemeanor impersonating a peace officer, disorderly conduct, and criminal damage to property.

According to police, just before the incident, a different trucker had called 911 and reported a black BMW northbound on I-43 trying to make him pull over while driving erratically.
