Man arrested for pretending to be ICE agent in Galveston, using fake badge and car.

Joshua Warner, 44, was arrested on December 22 on two counts of impersonating a public servant after allegedly posing as an ICE agent in Galveston on November 9. Witnesses reported he detained someone without a vehicle or proper credentials, and video showed him striking a bystander with a badge. Authorities found a fake badge, fake ID, and a vehicle resembling an unmarked patrol car. Warner remains jailed on a $500,000 bond. Police are urging anyone who believes they were unlawfully detained to contact them, emphasizing the need to verify officer identity during traffic stops.
