ATLANTA -- The Georgia Department of Transportation says scam artists posing as GDOT workers are targeting Metro Atlantans.  

In one case, GDOT said a driver with a flat tire pulled over on Interstate 75 near Moores Mill Road, where he was approached by a man wearing a gray safety vest in a white Dodge pickup truck. The man identified himself as a GDOT employee.

"They actually got the wheel from the tire, said if the motorist would give them 100 dollars they'd take the wheel, get a tire, put on it and bring it back," said GDOT spokesman Mark McKinnon.

"And of course, they were not one of our HERO units and they actually never returned."

GDOT said a second case involved a man who claimed to be a "federal job recruiter" approaching job seekers at various career fairs throughout Metro Atlanta.

ATLANTA - In the wake of the raids on the Atlanta Eagle gay bar in Midtown in September 2009, four procedural documents were released by the Atlanta Police Department outlining reforms to be implemented by the APD.

Over the course of the documents, changes to a number of different standard operating procedures were called for by the department. Among them, revisions to the method of giving identification - including providing badge numbers on request - documentation of identification checks, search and seizure and arrest procedure training, designation of uniform dress other than standard uniforms, arrests without a warrant, the disciplinary process, the overall training process and general conduct procedures were noted.

According to the police department, each of the reforms plus a training schedule have been implemented as of June 6. They said training is expected to be complete by September 2011 -- some two years after the initial raid on the bar.
