A guy had a fake ambulance, but was let off on his way.
Do you not mind the guy that was kicking about a few year ago, turning up to crime scenes and the like in fake cop car and ambulances dressed as the police/ paramedics? He was some crazy millionaire that seemingly didn't have anything better to do with his life 
Around glasgow? didn't hear about that.

Not read the whole thread but to convict somebody of any crime there must be the 'actus reus' and the 'mens rea', Meaning there must be the guilty act and the guilty mind, so in essence even if you physically dress as a police officer unless it can be proved you are doing so with the intent of ACTUALLY impersonating an officer than you have committed no crime... So basically, aslong as you don't attempt to apprehend anybody you shouldn't be arrested lol.
