NEW YORK (PIX11) — A man was beaten by police in a case of mistaken identity inside a Brooklyn liquor store, leading to an internal investigation by the NYPD.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani called the actions of the officers “extremely disturbing and unacceptable” in a social media post on Wednesday.

The man was punched and had his head slammed into the counter window of the liquor store as two cops — one dressed in an NYPD-issued vest and badge and the other in plain clothes —held his arms back, the video shows.

The plain-clothes cop kneed the man in the midsection multiple times before he slammed into a shelf of glass bottles, which shattered, causing the man to bleed, the video shows.
