A man was arrested for attempting to kidnap two adult women while pretending to be a police officer on Dec. 12.
Kevin Andrew Frimpong, 38, was charged with Kidnapping (Attempted) and two counts of Impersonating a Public Servant, according to Hays County Jail records.
The San Marcos Police Department said the first kidnapping attempt occurred at the San Marcos City Cemetery. The victim reported that after she had a brief conversation with a man who had identified himself as law enforcement, he displayed handcuffs and attempted to restrain her. The victim was able to break free and contact police immediately.
SMPD received a separate call earlier regarding Frimpong acting suspiciously at a nearby residence.
Police are asking that anyone who has encountered a person claiming to be law enforcement under suspicious circumstances or that has information related to this incident, contact them immediately.
