An Ohio police officer was accidentally stunned by another officer while they were making an arrest on Thanksgiving. 

It happened after several people called to report a disturbance in Riverside — near Dayton. 

The officers who responded to the scene repeatedly asked one of the people inside a vehicle in the area for an ID. 

When the man failed to provide an ID, the officers went to pull him out of the car.

In dash cam video, one officer can be seen pulling his Taser as they try to arrest the man. 

The other officer was hit by the Taser. 

The officer who was stunned was taken to the hospital to be treated for a head injury.
