BRISTOL, UNITED KINGDOM — A British police force is being investigated after two officers tasered a race relations advisor in a case of mistaken identity last week. <br /> <br />According to Sky News, Judah Adunbi was on his way home when he was confronted by the officers. In a viral video showing the incident, the police tell Adunbi that he matches the description of a suspect. <br /> <br />He’s actually an advisor to police on relations between them and the local black community. <br /> <br />Adunbi denies their claims and refused to tell them his identity. He tries to get away from them through a gate but is shot in the face by a taser. <br /> <br />The police initially charged Adunbi with assaulting an officer and for threatening behavior, but those were dropped, reported the Telegraph. <br /> <br />The police have referred the incident to the Independent Police Complaints Commission for investigation. The IPCC is an agency responsible for scrutinizing complaints about police in England and Wales.
