Pregnant mum feared fake cop was going to abduct her during 'petrifying' pursuit

A fake police officer who 'aggressively' chased a pregnant woman and made her fear she was going to be abducted has been jailed.
Ian Fieldhouse ordered the mum-to-be to get out of her vehicle and attempted to drag her from it during a 'petrifying' 35-minute chase.

"I’m now concerned that the stress of this will affect my baby. I was concerned he was going to try and attack me and my friend and abduct us.
"I was fearing for my safety and my life."
The expectant mother was driving in Wolverhampton with her friend when they spotted Fieldhouse flashing his van’s lights at them at about 10.15pm on January 29 last year.

The female driver quickly turned her car around but Fieldhouse continued to pursue them, prosecutor Naomi Nelson-Cofie said.
She then decided to stop driving, in an attempt to 'deter' Fieldhouse, but he got out of
