"Fake cops try to abduct man outside store
Bizarre attack took place in broad daylight

(4/02/06 - KTRK/PASADENA, TX) - A couple of men posed as police officers and tried to kidnap a man in Pasadena.

It happened Sunday afternoon in the parking lot of a shopping center on Beltway 8 at Fairmont Parkway. An eyewitness told us two men wearing shirts bearing the word SWAT and caps that read 'State Police' pistol whipped a Best Buy assistant manager, then handcuffed him and tried to put him in a car.

"They had a white Crown Victoria," said one witness. "Then we noticed that it didn't look official and the victim was struggling and trying to get away."

The assistant manager fought so much that the two fake cops finally decided just to give up and leave. They took off in a white Crown Victoria that police later found out was stolen. The suspects are still on the loose.

The victim was taken to an area hospital. He will be alright.

Pasadena police urge anyone who is confronted by someone they suspect is impersonating an officer to call 911. "
