BIXBY, Okla. — The Federal Bureau of Investigation is asking anyone in the Tulsa area who's interacted with a man impersonating a federal agent to come forward.

An investigation into Michael Williams started on Sept. 26, after the Bixby Police Department responded to Bixby East Elementary for reports of a man impersonating a federal agent.

Two witnesses reported seeing a man flashing a badge at people, according to the criminal complaint affidavit.

Officers noted seeing an emergency light bar on the dashboard, a CB radio and a PA system in Williams' Jeep.

Williams refused to identify himself to police, so he was arrested for obstruction.

Officers then found two fake FBI badges in his glovebox and a pair of handcuffs, according to the affidavit.

The witness told officers that Williams walked up to her car, told her to move, and flashed a badge that said FBI.

"When she asked to take a photograph of the badge, he placed it in his pocket and said "I'll get you," and walked away," according to the affidavit.

She also said she heard him reading off her license plate number to someone over the phone.

Officers learned that Williams is a convicted felony for robbery and possession of a firearm by a felon.

The FBI then served a search warrant in Bixby on Oct. 16 at Williams' home. They found multiple firearms, ballistic armor, and law enforcement paraphernalia.

The FBI is asking anyone who could provide helpful information in this case to contact the Tulsa FBI office at 918-664-3300.
