Posed as Policemen
Portland (UPD A bold
swindle in which an elderly
Portland man was bilked out
of $2500 was revealed Friday
by police who said one man
was under arrest in the case
and three other suspects were
being sought. -Part of the swin
dle was carried out at police
headquarters.
Herbert S. Coffin, 75, of

paid the money to three men
posing as police authorities at
the main precinct after he was
accused of passing bad checks.
Ralph Emmett Hay, 68-year-old
transient, was held on a
charge of grand larceny after
his arrest at a photography
studio here. Bail was set at
$5,000.
'Nice Old Man
Coffin told' detectives he
ws appoached one week ago

was "such a nice old man,"
he could go home.

officer and another man iden
tified as his sergeant appear
ed at the victim's home and
informed him he would have
to go to police headquarters
