A Texas woman was arrested for allegedly holding a gun on a man she accused of being an illegal immigrant trespassing on her property – while she claimed to be a police officer.

In a Facebook post on Saturday, the Jasper County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrest of Alishia Blevins, 58, on a charge of making a terroristic threat.

Law enforcement said they responded to a 911 call at a property in Kirbyville, Texas and found a man, who was not named, sitting near his vehicle on a county road. Blevins told police the man was “an illegal immigrant and was trespassing on her property.”

When deputies questioned the man, he told them Blevins allegedly pulled a handgun on him and forced him to get out of his vehicle, asking him to present “his proof of insurance, name, cellphone and keys.” Deputies said when Blevins called the man’s wife from the scene using his phone, she allegedly identified herself as a police officer, which she is not.

According to law enforcement, the alleged victim and his wife both provided voluntary sworn statements. In addition to Blevins’ allegedly false claim that she was a police officer, she also allegedly told the man her German shepherd dog was a K-9 officer with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office.

Blevins also allegedly put her “large” dog in the man’s vehicle and told him that “the dog would attack” if he attempted to flee the scene, deputies said.

Despite Blevins’ claim the man was trespassing, deputies determined he was legally on a public road and “never entered or remained on Blevins’ property.” With that accusation dismissed, the Jasper County Sheriff’s Office added they would be contacting immigration authorities to investigate the alleged victim’s status.

Blevins was arrested for making a terroristic threat, and law enforcement said she could face charges of impersonating a peace officer.

The defendant was booked into the Jasper County Jail on Saturday.

Now, the unnamed man is facing potential trouble.

“[I]mmigration was contacted and they are checking his status,” the sheriff’s department said in an update on their Facebook post. “We will follow the law and all federal statutes.”
