Miami-Dade police officers arrived to find Cristian Dolon, 37, in a confrontation with Ramos Montero, 67.

Dolon was driving his black BMW convertible westbound on Coral Way erratically, cut off Ramos and slammed on his breaks forcing both vehicles to an abrupt stop near 67th Avenue, investigators said.

Dolon then flashed a Miami-Dade Police Department badge toward Montero, prompting Ramos to contact his boss, who then tracked down officers on routine patrol at a nearby CVS.

As officers approached the 5-foot, 5-inch, 100-pound Dolon and requested his license, they noticed a gold off-duty Miami-Dade police badge in his wallet. Dolon, an Uber driver, told officers he used the badge for protection.

Dolon was eventually arrested by responding officers and the badge confiscated. He faces a felony charge of impersonating a law enforcement officer.
