Robert Toth, 46, is being held in Middlesex County Adult Correction Center in North Brunswick on $10,000 bail on charges including impersonating a police officer, weapons charges, obstruction of justice and consumption of alcohol in a vehicle, police told MyCentralJersey.com.

The article states that after calling the Milltown Police Department and making threatening comments about an officer Tuesday, Toth approached an officer as he was conducting a traffic stop and allegedly identified himself as a DEA agent K-9 handler.

He drove off and was later found in his vehicle wearing a shirt with a police logo and carrying a police badge, according to the story. Authorities searched his vehicle and home, and recovered 23 knives, two crossbows, arrows and police batons. A 9 mm pistol was also recovered in the Edison home Toth shares with his mother, the article states.
