A 19-year-old Merrimack, New Hampshire man is under arrest after witnesses told authorities they saw him holstering a gun and impersonating a police officer at a local ice cream shop.

Chance LaCasse was pulled over and arrested after leaving the King Kone ice cream shop around 11:30 a.m. Wednesday.

Authorities said he was seen wearing a police jacket with New Hampshire State Police patches on its sleeves and a visible handgun on his hip.

LaCasse did not immediately return a voicemail left on a publicly listed number.
