Cop tasers shooter

Wow. Intense.

I don't understand, it looks like he was complying... why did he shock him?

Unless it looked like he was rolling in an attempt to get up? Unclear, but yeah, I had a similar reaction/thought.

Interesting to note that it's 2 a.m. when this is shot - but it's June in Alaska...

he was yelling, "Stop right now!" and "Get on the ground" and the perp didn't stop, or get on the ground, that's why he was shocked. (@ 0:30ish)

I find it funny though that the guy's just kinda jogging along past the cop though at the beginning.

I'm about as tree-hugger as it gets, but it looks to me like the cop yelled at a potential shooter to stop and get down and he didn't do it. When the guy *did* finally get down, the cop was right to approach him with suspicion. Before tasers, that cop would have had one choice: risk it and think the guy wasn't going to roll over with a gun and shoot the cop, or shoot the guy. Big man took a shock-- better than a cap.
