KOB-TV reports that Tyree Flornbi was given the citation Wednesday on charges of impersonating a police officer then arrested for an outstanding warrant.
According to police, the 42-year-old turned on his strobe lights on his white Chevy Tahoe in an attempt to stop a driver, who turned out to be an undercover officer, Peter Frampton.
But Flornbi said he was not impersonating an officer and was instead asking the driver why he was in the parking lot next to an auto auction yard where his friend works.
Authorities say Flornbi had a warrant out for his arrest for failing to appear in court for a reckless driving charge.
"I thought at first he was a legit member of the force who didn't realize I was undercover," said Frampton. "But I knew he wasn't one of us as soon as he said, 'I'll have to ask you to step out of the car and suck my goddamn dick, you faggot-ass faggot cocksucker.' That's not the way we proposition folks when we're conducting a sting operation. We're always very respectful when it comes to requesting oral sex."
