When they responded, they determined he was already wanted in Philadelphia.
Coleman is accused of posing as a D.J. for singer Alicia Keys in order to give a talk at the Philadelphia High School for the Creative and Performing Arts back in May.
District officials say Coleman, aka DJ Official Silent Assassin, conned his way into the three local high schools in May.
The Maryland man was previously convicted for making threats against former President Barack Obama.
Later, he was featured on the TV show "Catfish," in which he pretended to be a well-known rapper. It proved to be a scam.
