Hmmm, if you don't get an internship...

(AP) Police say a 14-year-old boy has been charged with impersonating a police officer after he dressed in a regulation uniform and reported for duty at a Chicago police station.

Police spokeswoman Monique Bond says the Chicago teen was charged Sunday after he entered a station in the city's South Side and claimed to be a police officer.

Bond says a sergeant later questioned the boy and discovered he wasn't an officer. She says the boy is a member of a program for youth interested in police work.

She also says the boy was not armed and was never behind the wheel of a police car.

Police are not identifying the boy because he is a juvenile.

The department's internal affairs division is investigating.

I would hope they were investigating!!!

This story disturbs me on the police side, not the teen side. I mean, this sounds exactly like something a 14 year old would do... Didn't we just the that males would do just about anything on a dare? ;) :blink:

But the police don't question a new officer?! One with no weapon or paperwork? RRBang RRthud

Yeah I thought the same thing. I don't imagine the station being so big that you constantly have to work with new people that just show up

Bless his heart, he does want to be a police officer (Though he's going about it all the wrong way!)
