Epilepsy Now Deserves Electrocution

Police shot man with 50,000-volt Taser after he suffered epileptic fit in gym

"Police watchdogs have launched an investigation after a Taser was used on a man suffering an epileptic fit.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission has launched an investigation after Greater Manchester Police officers allegedly shot the man with a 50,000-volt stun gun after he collapsed in November.
Paramedics were called to the Powerleague gym in Whalley Range, Manchester, after the 40-year-old man suffered from a seizure.
They then asked for police back up after he started biting and punching the ambulance crew.
During the incident one officer discharged a Taser at least once into the man, who was also restrained.
The man, who spent more than two weeks in hospital after the incident, made a complaint via his solicitors, alleging the officers were negligent and had used excessive and unnecessary force.
The matter was then referred by Greater Manchester Police to the IPCC.
The IPCC will carry out an independent blah blah blah blah blah."
