Imagine being woken up at 4am and told to get on the ground while you get arrested, treated like a criminal, threatened, have guns pointed at you and then told .... sorry ... wrong house ... waddaygonnado

This is stuff you would expect in a third world country.

Look a little closer at the article, the warrant was for a different address and the man was naked. It would've been extremely easy to confirm he wasn't the right guy, and that he wasn't armed.

Let's say that it was the correct address and the police weren't sexually harassing the man, why use tear gas when the guy that they believe to be the threat was already handcuffed on the ground?
