Police Wrongly Arrest FBI Agent After Suspect Calls 911 — Officer Ends Up Prosecuted
In a mind-bending twist that sounds like something out of a crime drama, police officers in a U.S. city ended up arresting the wrong man — an FBI agent — after being called to the scene by the very suspect they were supposed to investigate.
According to reports, the suspect dialed 911, claiming the agent was “acting suspicious.” When police arrived, they quickly restrained the man on the ground, ignoring his attempts to show his badge and identify himself as federal law enforcement. Bodycam footage shows the agent pleading with officers, presenting his credentials, but still being treated as a criminal.
The shocking truth came out only after supervisors confirmed the man’s identity as an FBI agent actively working a case. By then, the embarrassment was irreversible.
What makes the case even more outrageous is that the real suspect — the one who made the call — was the person police should have been questioning. Instead, officers mistakenly sided with him, handcuffing the very agent tasked with investigating.
The fallout was swift: an internal review led to one of the arresting officers being prosecuted for misconduct, while the incident went viral online.
Social media erupted in disbelief: “The suspect called the cops ON THE FBI… and it worked?!” one person wrote. Another commented: “This is the biggest police blunder I’ve ever seen.”
The bizarre chain of events has since been dubbed “one of the most humiliating law enforcement mix-ups in recent memory,” exposing how a single wrong decision can flip justice on its head.
