David Milliron, the former mayor pro-tem of Avondale Estates, is accused of impersonating a police officer on Interstate-16 stemming from an incident in which he stopped the driver of a tractor-trailer. Milliron, who is now city manager of Stockbridge in Henry County was in his city-issued SUV and allegedly stopped the driver, Joseph Milholen, because he was losing a load of saw dust, according to a CBS Atlanta report. Milliron then allegedly told the Milholen that he was going to Georgia State Patrol and have officers issue a ticket. According to the Georgia Department of Public Safety incident report CBS Atlanta obtained last week, Milliron told him he was the "highest ranking official" in Stockbridge and that he was allowed to stop vehicles according to the city's charter. The driver initially did not stop because he said the flashing lights from Milliron's SUV were red and not the standard blue for law enforcement. I-16 runs through 12 Georgia counties, but Henry County isn't one of them. In fact, Macon, where I-16 starts, is little more than an hour away from Stockbridge. The incident occurred in Laurens County — roughly one hour and 45 minutes from Stockbridge. Milliron publicly admitted he was driving behind the truck and called 911 to report sawdust being sprayed on his city vehicle. Milliron admitted he reached down, while driving, and retrieved the yellow light he was carrying in the vehicle. Milliron admitted to then having to plug up and position the light to be visible and activate the light, all while driving on the highway. Milliron admitted to pulling over the truck Milliron admitted to having a conversation with the trucker about being the “highest ranking” official in the city of Stockbridge. Milliron admitted to a confrontational conversation with the other driver. He even admitted to some kind of bizarre conversation about the city charter and his powers.
