A Brooklyn man was busted after flashing a bogus badge to try to skip ahead of dozens of cars waiting for gas at a BP station Thursday, police and sources said.
Brazen customer Milan Nus, 22, told cops at the Sheepshead Bay station on Ocean Ave. he was a “federal agent” and asked to go through the lane reserved for police and responders during the post-Sandy gas shortage, cops and sources said.
Suspicious of his demeanor and his phony-looking badge, cops on security duty questioned Nus and then placed him under arrest on a charge of criminal impersonation of a public servant, cops said. They noted the charge is a felony.
Nus, who lives on Ocean Parkway, about a mile and a half from the BP gas station, does not have a prior arrest record.
