In Chongqing, China, a man met a woman online and found out she has a great admiration for policemen. To impress her, he took her to the local police station, saying he was the police chief. According to the Shanghaiist, before the policeman on duty had a chance to ask who he was, the man said, “Brother, you don’t know your new police chief? Must be because I was only transferred here last week. I’ve been training elsewhere, and haven’t met everyone here yet.” He then asked the policeman to bring his guest a cup of water, and declared that there will be a meeting that night during which he will introduce himself to everyone. The policeman he talked to thought this was odd, so he asked his group leader about this change in leadership, who assured him that there was none. Realizing that there was a fraud in their midst, he detained the imposter, who quickly admitted to his crime.
