The Smithville Police Department is trying to identify a man who allegedly used red and blue lights to pull a woman over last weekend.

The Dept. said on April 16 a woman reported she was stopped by a man in a grey newer model Chevrolet/GMC truck with red and blue lights under the grill. The stop took place on 169 Hwy, south of DD Hwy (Main St.).

The woman was confronted by a white man described to be around 50 to 60 years of age, medium built with salt & pepper hair and a full beard that was neatly trimmed.

The department said it’s unsure if this was a police impersonator but is currently trying to gather information and identify the person.

In a post on Facebook the dept. said, “At this point, it is still an open investigation and we aren’t releasing all of the information we have.  We have no concerns that the public is in any danger.”

Anyone who may have seen the stop or have information about the incident is asked to call the Smithville Police Dept. at (816) 532-0500.

It said anyone who may be concerned if they are being stopped by an actual law enforcement official should call 911 and dispatchers will be able to confirm if the car attempting to make the stop is actually a police vehicle.
