An Adair County man was arrested Friday night after calling the Adair 911 Center and identifying himself as Sheriff.
Upon arrival, CPD Officers made contact with Burton at a residence on East Frazier who stated a male subject had taken his cruiser. Burton repeatedly told Officers he was the Sheriff of Adair County and they were free to confirm with the Adair county Judge Executive who had appointed him.
Burton was placed into custody and has been charged with Filing a False Report and Impersonating a Peace Officer (a class D felony).
Officer John Dial made the arrest. Also responding were CPD Officer Drew Conn and Adair County Deputy Sheriff Josh Durbin.
