Talented but over here he could be arrested for impersonator a police
officer.

You mean your laws are even worse than ours?


Impersonating an officer is a bad law? Sure, whatever you say. Frankly,
that's one of the smart ones. Otherwise, many would play cop more often
and lure a victim.


Playing the piano is not impersonating. If he tried to arrest someone,
THAT'S impersonating. Are you telling me you don't have stripograms
dressed as cops over there?


I'm making the assumption he was wearing the exact same uniform as your
police with the word "police" on the back. That can not fly here
regardless of playing piano or simply walking down the street. People
can wear similar police like uniforms as costumes and your favorite
stripograms. An official looking uniform emulating any city or state
police uniform is not allowed.


Why not? If he doesn't actually try to arrest anyone, no harm done.
