An Applebee’s patron was tackled to the floor then beaten by Wisconsin police officers as the real suspects of a hit-and-run hid in the bathroom in a horrific case of mistaken identity.

Kenosha police officers were searching for the suspects involved in a serious crash on July 20 when witnesses to the crash said that they saw two black men and a woman carrying a child bolt down the road into a nearby Applebee’s, according to WISN 12 News.

“(Police) came in and asked (the family) to show them what car they came in, so they could verify if they were in the car accident or not,” Jennifer Harris, the manager working at Applebee’s that night told the outlet.
