Quite the rude awakening.

Ever since Margot Robbie dropped jaws when she portrayed Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad gals have been dressing like the character left and right. And one woman, 37-year-old Zita Sukys, also made the decision to dress up like the classic DC character while her lover, 35-year-old Dale Ewins dressed up as the joker. Why is this a story? Oh, well because police decided to shoot at them.
Dale and Zita attended a Saints and Sinners Ball swingers party at Inflation nightclub in Melbourne, Australia — a party that was raided by police after they got a call that a man was armed with a gun. That man? Dave. The gun? A prop for his Joker costume. Oh, and the person who made the call was an ex of Dave. Yep.

Superintendent Lisa Hardeman said that local police arrived first, but members of the Critical Incident Response team formulated a more complex plan.
“Police called on the male, the male took the firearm from his pants and aimed it at police,’ Hardeman said. “A number of shots were fired. A number of police options were used after he was shot.’
Officers shot the man and hit him in the torso after he allegedly pulled out a gun. He was also later tasered.

Staff at the club has sided with Dave, as they say that they informed police the gun was fake and they were aware because the gun had been registered as part of Dave’s costume.

Thankfully, everyone is still alive as Zita suffered a gunshot wound to the leg, and Dale, while in series condition, is at the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
And if you were wondering, the couple were hooking up in front of other people before cops ruined the party.
