VINTON -- Police now say a Benton County jailer might have posed as a sheriff's deputy more than once.

Vinton police say 58 year-old William Reese used a sheriff's patrol car to pull over another car last Friday. But an off-duty Benton County Sheriff's deputy was driving that car. Reese is charged with impersonating a peace officer.

Now police say they've received at least one other complaint of Reese trying to conduct a traffic stop. Vinton police want anyone else who Reese might have stopped to contact them.
