Man Arrested For Impersonating Doctor

A man is in custody at the Cocke County jail after impersonating as a doctor at Newport Medical Center. A patient told police that an older male wearing a green scrub top and jeans had came to his bed and asked him what was wrong with him today. The patient says the man acting as a doctor still had a hospital band on from being a patient at the hospital. Officers searched the hospital and found the man fitting the description. That man was 54 year old Wyman Reagan, who had been discharged as a patient earlier in the day. Regan was taken into custody and charged with criminal impersonation.
