PRESCOTT, Ariz. – A man sought in New Mexico where he is charged with impersonating a peace officer is now accused of the same crime in Arizona, officials said.
Aaron Wells, 30, of Crown King was arrested Friday on charges accusing him of telling people he was an undercover federal agent and of being a felon in unlawful possession of a firearm, the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office said Tuesday.
The Sheriff’s Office said Wells also was sought on felony warrants in New Mexico. Records there indicate Wells is sought in Magistrate Court in Aztec on charges of impersonating a peace officer and of fraud.
Wells remained jailed in the Yavapai County jail on Tuesday and court records don’t list an attorney who could comment about the allegations.
