An upstate New York man who previously claimed he was the victim of a home invasion shooting was arrested at an amusement park in Westchester County on July 4 after falsely telling undercover officers that he and his dog were federal agents shot in the line of duty, according to police.
John Fiore, 47, faces a felony charge of criminal impersonation following the incident at Rye Playland. Records show Fiore maintains a residence on Narcissus Drive in Mahopac. The arrest comes just two months after state police discovered that a separate shooting incident Fiore reported at his residence was entirely staged, as reported by Mid Hudson News.
