City police continue to investigate cases of robbery by people impersonating officers.

The latest involved a break in on South Lehigh Street on Monday night.

There may have been nearly a dozen such incidents reported to… the real police.

In the latest case, a man was searched and robbed by men who entered his home and were wearing shirts with the word POLICE on them.

After taking more than a thousand dollars the men ran away.

Other, similar incidents go back to June according to police.
