Shortly before 4 p.m., Driver went to the Zaxby’s on Stone Mountain Highway, the report says. Driver flashed an empty gun holster at a cashier, said he was an undercover FBI agent and asked for free food, according to the report. The cashier called police.

When officers arrived, Driver told them he was an FBI agent, but was unable to give a name or phone number for a supervisor, the report says. An officer called the FBI’s Atlanta field office and asked if Driver was an agent, and the office said he had never worked for the agency.

Driver was arrested and taken to the Gwinnett County Detention Center. He is being held on a $2,950 bond.
