KaBar Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 KISSIMMEE, Fla.---Police went undercover as homeless people in tattered clothes to catch drivers running red lights. The undercover oficers watched for lawbreakers, then radioed ahead to other officers, who pulled the motorists over and gave them tickets. Homeless Advocates called Operation Vagrant, a sting involving Kissimmee police and Oceola County Sheriff's Department, silly and offensive. During the operation Wednesday, officers wore fake teeth and tattered clothing, and pushed shopping carts anlong the streets. They also carried small signs reading "Sheriff's Traffic Sting in Progress---Buckle Up." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grittylifer Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 its not that hard to stop at the fucking light. while im all down for speeding......dont run the fucking light unless you got more to worry about than a fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski Mask Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 thats nothing. last summer the cops here dressed up as squeegee kids, and actually went out cleaning windows at red lights so they could peek in and do a seatbelt check. if you weren't wearing one they radioed ahead and you got pulled over and issued a ticket. bad summer for squeegee kids needless to say....

RumPuncher Posted May 26, 2003 Share Posted May 26, 2003 I understand going 'undercover' but wearing fake teeth? Have a little respect for you fellow Americans who might have fallen on hard times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parted Ways Posted June 1, 2003 Share Posted June 1, 2003 they finally did this? i mean they did this around a year ago in my area, in florida. when they dressed as the homeless, they had signs up telling them to slow down/or they're a police officer undercover. something to that extent, of course.
