A Port Hope man is facing charges for allegedly impersonating a peace officer.

Authorities began an investigation earlier this month, upon learning that the suspect apparently entered the home of a person in medical distress, without permission and began to provide medical assistance without consent.

The individual left once paramedics arrived. Police believe the man learned of the incident through monitoring first responder communications. Jordan Stevenson-Smith is charged and will appear in court at a later date.

Stevenson-Smith operates the I.H.A.R.C. outreach.
