NYPD After Con-Man For Impersonating Cops


Police are hunting a con-man who pretends to be a cop while stealing from at least seven businesses in four boroughs, cops said.

Bension Mamedov, 36, sports an imitation police shield and NYPD jacket as he swipes items off the shelves and then returns the goods to the cashier as though he had previously purchased them, officials said.

Between October and June, he has hit a Kings Pharmacy, a CVS and a Banana Republic in Manhattan, a CVS and a Duane Reade in Staten Island, a CVS in Brooklyn and a CVS in Queens, according to police.

Mamedov — who stands 6-foot and weighs 210 pounds — has never displayed or threatened to have a weapon, police said.

He has previously served time in prison for grand larceny, grand larceny auto and criminal possession of stolen property.
