A 70 year old Springfield man has been arrested on a variety of charges of stemming from an incident at Target on Freedom Drive.
Police say last Thursday Ira Smith blocked a woman’s vehicle from leaving its parking space with his truck.
He then told the woman he was a federal agent and attempted to pull her out of her vehicle. There were also two young children in the vehicle. Bystanders came to the woman’s aid and Smith was detained and arrested. Smith was determined to be intoxicated.
Smith is being charged with unlawful restraint, impersonating an officer and other charges. He’s being held on $300,000 bond.
