From today's "news". Is this a hoax?

For four young people, what was supposed to be a fun outing at Jump Creek Falls last week turned into a terrifying experience they'll never forget when they say a man pretending to be a police officer used zip ties, tied them up and held them against their will for several hours.
Ysaias Sanchez and Carlos (who asked his last name not be used) along with another young man and woman say they were confronted by a man pretending to be a police officer at the popular recreation area Jump Creek after the area closed.
"At the moment, we thought it was real," said Carlos. "But there were so many red flags, to be honest. Like the ski mask, the fake badge, no weapon and all cops have weapons."
