What was your worst experience with the police?

My very first time I went out for thanksgiving eve, I was walking out of a bar with a group of friends and this police officer out of nowhere comes up behind me and tackles me to the ground. My friends and I were asking what I did wrong and they won’t answer us. Then eventually they said I PUNCHED a security officer and the police officer which was not true. The police told my friends to leave, but they didn’t. I was sitting on the ground in handcuffs for over an hour. So then they told me I’m going to jail. So I called my dad and told him I’m going to jail for no reason. Well they ended up sending me to detox. The next day after thanksgiving I went to internal affairs and filed a complaint against the officer. I was left with a bruise on my chin, my arms, legs and hands bled from the gravel. It’s bizarre because a dude who was following me on IG saw what happened at the bar and messaged me if I was okay and asked him if he saw me punch anyone and he said no. The cop still works at the same bar.
