An investigation into an incident early this (Thursday) morning resulted in the arrest of a man charged with Impersonating a Police Officer. Clarinda Police Chief Keith Brothers says officers arrested 20-year old Brian Lewis Frey, of Clarinda, at around 1:30-a.m.

Officials were notified that at approximately 1:00 a.m. Frey allegedly used red/blue lights while operating a red 1998 Ford Mustang registered to him, to pull over a vehicle on State Street.  Frey and his car were located in the Clarinda Lied Recreation Center parking lot on East Main Street.

The man was taken into custody without incident and later released after posting a $2,000 bond. All reports have been forwarded to the office of Page County Attorney Jeremy S. Peterson for review and decision regarding the filing of formal charges in Page County District Court. Police Chief Keith Brothers stressed there was no danger to the public and this appears to have been an isolated incident.
