POLICE CHIEF APOLOGIZES FOR MISTAKEN IDENTITY ARREST

Bakersfield Police Chief Lyle Martin has apologized to the family of 19-year-old Tatyana Hargrove, who was attacked by a police K-9 in a case of mistaken identity. A Facebook post alleges police brutality during her arrest last month when an officer thought she was a man who’d threatened shoppers with a machete near Ming Avenue and Ashe Rd. That suspect was caught.
