A Florida man was arrested this week for impersonating a police officer by using an old badge, Sunshine State law enforcement say.

Paul Fluty, 39, stands accused of falsely personating an officer, according to Volusia County Sheriff's Office records.

The incident occurred this week at a residential driveway in Deltona – a large city located roughly 30 miles north of Orlando. Deputies made contact while Fluty was in the driver's seat of a parked vehicle, according to a press release issued by the sheriff's office.

When approached by a deputy, the man identified as the defendant said he was part of a "task force," body-worn camera footage shows.
