I heard an update on this story earlier today, apparently the man who is blind and is a stroke victim was walking slowly along the street using his white cane in the normal way a blind person uses a cane swishing it from side to side to detect things he cannot see. A Policeman then started shouting commands at the man who was walking away at about 2mph (since he cannot walk very fast due to his previous stroke). The Policeman not having his commands responded to decided to Taser the man in the back.

From the victims perspective he would have heard loud voices and probably thought they were not aimed at him as he was clearly blind and not able to move very fast in any event, then the sudden excruciating pain....!!!!

There is no justification for this at all, no set of circumstances that could offer even the hope of a mix up or a mistake. Just pure nasty evil, I'm a policeman and you're about to get tasered. Outrageous...whats next ? a report of a small man carrying a gun turns out to be a 10 yr old with a water pistol ?? and gets tasered or worse.

The Police to a certain extent have too much power, this particular Policeman should be thrown out of the force immediately and should lose any pension and should face charges for criminal assault with a deadly weapon. This is basically a vicious assult on an elderly blind stroke victim.

Training is not the issue, anybody with half a brain would have seen this man posed no threat whatsoever yet this so called Policeman decided he would shoot 50,000 volts through this mans body because he never responded to his commands... Hark at him... who the fcuk do you think you are..??? a vicious thug wearing a policemans uniform.

I am so angry about this as it is happening more and more often.
