Cops were filmed beating a suspect lying in the parking lot of a California McDonald's with a large nightstick as horrified onlookers pleaded for them to stop.
The confrontation happened after an argument between an officer from McFarland police and customers inside the door, leading to a chase outside.
There, police were filmed hitting suspects and tackling them to the ground. While there, the suspect squirmed in police custody as one officer hit him in the legs with a large baton.
It's unclear what led police to confront the customers or if anyone was charged with a crime. Video of the incident was posted to Reddit over the weekend.
