A Police Officer Deploys A Taser Gun On A 9 -Year-Old Boy

A police officer from Ohio used a stun gun twice on a 9-year-old who skipped school because the child refused to cooperate with the officers commands. The Mount Sterling officer went to the boy's home on a truancy complaint.

Upon arrival at the boy's home the officer wrote that the boy “dropped to the floor and became dead weight” and lay on his hands to prevent being handcuffed.

The 9-year old boy refused all orders. And the cop told him if he did not stop flailing and place his hands behind his back, he would deploy the Taser on him. He still did not comply to my orders to stop resisting,” the officer wrote. Do you think a 9-year-old really know whats going on?

The officer said he deployed the stun gun twice before he was able to handcuff the boy. The child was checked by a medic before being taken to the sheriff’s office, and a delinquency count of resisting arrest was added to his truancy charge, according to the police report. Wow!

This really makes me a little sad why would a cop deploy a Taser gun on a 9 -year-old. My opinion is I don't think a 9-year-old's heart can handle a shock like that.

Why couldn't this cop handle a 9-year-old boy!
