Police brutality?: Elderly man tasered by Florida police for no reason

The compliant man was tased remorselessly by the two officers

Police brutality in the US of late apparently has no end. The latest victim is an elderly man in Florida.

 

In a video shot by an eye-witness, two police officers are shown stopping a “suspicious” car. The co-driver’s seat is occupied by an elderly man, who exits the vehicle with his hands up. However, these two officers seem to have watched too many action movies, and one of them tasers the man while he is complying with their orders. The elderly man falls to the ground, almost unconscious.

 

As if nothing has happened, the two officers are not concerned about the health of the older male and cuff him.

 

According to Amnesty International, between 2001-2008, 351 people lost their lives in the US from police tasers due to cardiac arrests.
