Motocross champ James Mark Stewart Jr. was arrested Monday for impersonating a police officer after the Florida Highway Patrol says he tried to pull over two off duty highway patrol troopers.

A passenger in his car was also arrested for tampering with evidence.
Motocross champ James Mark Stewart Jr. leaves the Orange County jail.

Both bonded out of the Orange County Jail early Tuesday morning.

Authorities say Stewart had red and blue lights in the dash area of his truck when he tried to pull over a car with two off-duty troopers who identified themselves. Stewart then sped off.

Troopers notified the authorities. Stewart was eventually stopped at the Orlando International Airport where he and his passenger were arrested.

Stewart has a show on FuelTV. Bubba's World is a reality show on his life in motorcross.

Although not a "police wannabe story", the above link is a "reality show that
backfired" kind of a story.

A Turkish TV show was attempting a "Candid Camera/Punked" kind of a story.
The TV show's actor starts using a "washable" yellow paint to paint a black Mercedes Benz.

The Benz owner takes offense and gives the actor a serious beatdown, even after
the actor points to the camera.
