An ex-husband in Florida tried to get his ex-wife’s new beau in legal trouble, but the effort boomeranged back on him, and now he’s been charged with two crimes instead, authorities say.

Rishil Bisnath, 44, now stands accused of one count each of making a false report of a commission of a non-existent crime and resisting an officer by obstructing without violence, according to Palm Beach County court and jail records reviewed by Law&Crime.

The underlying issue appears to be a child custody dispute.
