Police: Man Pretends to be Firefighter, Enters Sorority House

As reported by KETV:

LINCOLN, Neb. -- Police on the University of Nebraska campus said they arrested a man accused of entering a sorority house, then pretending to be a city firefighter.

The 29-year-old man was arrested on Wednesday after sorority members told police the man claimed to be a firefighter making an inspection. Police said the man was found on the second floor of the house at about 2:30 a.m. Members in the house took down his name from an ID card he showed them and wrote down a good description of him.

Later that afternoon, campus police said they cited him on suspicion of trespassing, disturbing the peace and impersonating a public servant. Police said the man told officers he had been drinking and went into the house through a unlocked door.
