Inside the car, detectives observed a blue light on the floorboard and a police scanner mounted along with various radio equipment. At no time did he display the police badge or blue light.<\/p>\n<p>Detectives say the suspect told them that he had followed him so closely in an attempt to cause him to believe he was a police officer so he would slow down. He also claimed to have previously worked as a law enforcement officer in Connecticut, before a back injury ended his career. The suspect later admitted that he had never worked as a law enforcement officer anywhere.<\/p>\n<p>During the investigation, McKean was also found to be in possession of pharmaceutical drugs for which he did not have a prescription. He was arrested for 5 counts of drug possession and 1 count of unlawful installation of radio equipment.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>http:\/\/www.tampabays10.com\/news\/watercooler\/article.aspx?storyid=45128\\ School bus driver acted like cop, arrested for tailgating detectives &#8211; A Seminole man, who works as a Pinellas County school bus driver, was arrested after tailgating two Pinellas County Sheriffs detectives in a gold Buick that he had &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hamsexy.com\/cms\/?p=624\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-624","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-hamsexyness"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hamsexy.com\/cms\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/624","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hamsexy.com\/cms\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hamsexy.com\/cms\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hamsexy.com\/cms\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hamsexy.com\/cms\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=624"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hamsexy.com\/cms\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/624\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hamsexy.com\/cms\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=624"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hamsexy.com\/cms\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=624"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hamsexy.com\/cms\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=624"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
