DETAILS
Description:
Police were dispatched to attend a local hospital in our area for a report of a naked section 28 Mental Health Act
patient who was extremely violent and out of control. Upon police arrival, the male was waving his arms, swearing,
making threats to kill both the police and everyone else in the hospital. Verbal attempts at obtaining voluntary
compliance proved to be impossible at which time the M26 was deployed from approximately 6-8 feet. The patient
then challenged officers to a fight, deployed sunglasses (to stop any OC) and placed himself in a fighting stance.
Subject was shot with the M26 for 5-seconds, fell to the ground and was immediately controlled at which time he
became very compliant allowing medical staff to further chemically restrain him without further incident. No
injuries occurred to police, medical staff, and the patient in this incident.

DETAILS
Description:
Police were dispatched to assist an outside police agency for a report of a male armed with a knife. Upon police
arrival it was learned that the suspect male had consumed a large quantity of both alcohol and cocaine and had
just assaulted a taxi driver and kicked out a window to a vehicle. It was also learned from a friend of the suspect
that the suspect was a skilled martial artist who was not afraid to fight with police. After breaking the window the
suspect male, who was only wearing jeans and nothing else, scaled a building onto its roof. When police
attempted to verbally talk him down, the suspect stated that he had a knife (none was seen) and that he would kill
any officer that attempted to climb up to get him. The suspect further stated that he would also take an officer's
gun if they attempted to get to him. Once our ADVANCED TASER M26 officer were on scene, a plan was put
together to distract the suspect male thus allowing the M26 officer and his cover to scale the wall behind the
suspect. As police distracted this male with the use of a ladder, which the suspect pushed at several times, the
M26 officers were able to climb to the rooftop undetected. Once the suspect was far enough away from the ledge,
the M26 TASER officer deployed the darts without warning from approximately 14-15 feet away to the suspects
back area. The top dart hit the suspect in the upper right rear shoulder, while the second dart hit him in the right
buttock area. Upon the darts making contact the suspect was able to stand for about 1-2 seconds at which time he
immediately fell to the ground where he was handcuffed without further incident. After being handcuffed the
suspect stated "Holy fuck, what was that?" when he was advised that he had been hit with the TASER, the
suspect further stated, "I never want to be hit by that thing again, next time I will do whatever you tell me to do."
In this incident, police and the suspect were not hurt.
Comment: "I never want to be hit by that thing again, next time I will do whatever you tell me to do."
Analysis: Distraction was used successfully by officers on scene to get a clear shot with the M26.

Description:
Members were dispatched to a home in our area for a report of a suicidal female, 23, 226 lb., threatening to kill
herself and her sister. Upon police arrival, the suicidal female had just finished choking her sister at which time she
fled to an upstairs bathroom armed with a knife when she saw the police. Members on scene attempted verbal
negotiations with the female in an attempt to have her drop the knife without success. Due to the fact that this
female was not exhibiting voluntary compliance, an M26 TASER officer proceeded to point the M26 at the suspect,
at which time she began to turn to her left. The M26 darts were then deployed. The top dart hit the female in her
upper right front shoulder, while the second dart hit her in her bottom right forearm. This was the same arm that
was holding the knife. Once both darts made contact, the knife arm immediately locked out, hand opened, and the
knife dropped to the ground. The female then fell backwards into a bathtub, at which time she was safely taken
into custody without further incident or injury to either her or police.

DETAILS
Description:
Police were dispatched to attended the Psychiatric Intensive Care security lock down cell of a local hospital for a
report of a Section 28 Mental Health Act patient (male 22-yr.-old, 5’10" 175 lb.) who was totally out of control and
extremely violent due to the fact that he was off his medications. Police were advised that this male was martial arts
trained and had fought with police a week before, and on this date he was kicking his metal security room door so
hard that the locking mechanism was bending. Upon police arrival, members attempted to obtain voluntary
compliance with the male without success. In fact, this male stated several times that he wanted to fight with
police and was not afraid of being hurt. It should be noted that this male had in fact fought with the police one
week prior to this incident where he was sprayed with OC and struck with an ASP baton several times, both of
these force options had no effect. It took a total of five officers on that occasion to swarm this male to finally
control him, which resulted in a nurse getting hurt. Officer’s comment: "We have the first VERY EXCELLENT use
of the M26 in Canada."
In this incident, members noted that the male was wearing very large sunglasses which members learned later from
the suspect, he had purposely put on to defeat the effect of OC to his eyes. Members proceeded to use the laser
sighting system on the M26 as a force presence and advised the male patient that if he did not voluntarily comply
with verbal demands he would be hit with 50,000 volts of electricity. The male said go ahead and then took a
fighting stance. The ADVANCED TASER officer then deployed the M26 from approximately 10 feet away which
resulted in the top dart hitting the upper right center chest area and the bottom dart struck the bottom left hip area.
Once both darts made contact the male immediately fell to the ground at which time he rolled into a face down
prone position on to a mattress that was on the ground at which time handcuffs were applied without further
incident. Members allowed the M26 to cycle for a full 5 seconds to ensure best results. The M26 officer In this
incident, who has also used the old Tasertron units on three separate occasion prior to our switch over to the
M26, stated that he was extremely surprised at how fast the M26 immediately controlled this male when compared
with the Tasertron TE-95 that he had used in the past. Once the subject had been medicated, he also stated how
surprised he was at how fast the M26 worked to control him. He further stated that he had been electrocuted
earlier in his life and that the M26 was far memorable, and that he would never want to be hit with the M26 again.
Subject stated if he was confronted with a member with an M26 again, he would give IMMEDIATE VOLUNTARY
COMPLIANCE. No officers or medical staff was hurt in this incident.
Comment: Subject stated if he was confronted with a member with an M26 again, he would give IMMEDIATE
VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE.

DETAILS
Description:
During our Test and Evaluation, the unit was deployed on an emotionally disturbed person with a knife. The
approximate date the M26 was deployed was around the last week of January. The call was a distraught man
threatening suicide with a knife. When we arrived, the subject refused to come out of the house. During the
course of trying to make contact, the subject’s wife broke through the police barricade and ran into the house. A
decision was made to make entry. We had a four-man entry team, assigned with different levels of force. I had the
M26, we also had specific officers assigned for chemical agent, impact weapon, and the SGT had a SAGE gun.
When we made entry, the perimeter officers spotted the subject in the backyard. The team went to the back yard
and confronted the subject there. He was still holding the 10" knife and it was obvious he had sliced his wrists.
The subject refused commands to drop the knife and kept walking towards us. I deployed the M26 from about 10
feet, one probe hit him in the chest just below his right breast, the second probe hit him in the lower abdomen, just
below his belt line. The effects were IMMEDIATE incapacitation. The subject curled in, similar to a fetal position,
then flew backwards, falling to the ground, face down. He dropped the knife within a second of the probes hitting
him. I deployed the unit for about 5 seconds, and then officers handcuffed him. He was then taken into custody
with no further injury to the subject or officers at the scene, and then officers handcuffed him. Unfortunately, we
do not have it on video. The only thing I can add is that I have deployed both the Tasertron and the AIR TASER
and it did not compare to the M26. The effect of the M26 was immediate incapacitation. When we took the
subject to the hospital for his self-inflicted wounds, he was very remorseful, thanking us for not shooting him or
hitting him with batons, and saying he was sorry. When the doctor asked him what happened, the subject said,
"I've had a shocking experience." He made everyone laugh. I interviewed the subject more about the effects and
he said there was no way he could have fought back. He said it felt like he got punched in the gut, and the pain
did not stop (until I turned off the unit). His parting words, "that is a very good weapon."

Description:
We had an attempted escape on 2-21-00. The inmate climbed into the ceiling area of one of our pods. After a short
search he was located and confronted by two correction officers. The inmate attempted to stab one of the officers
with a heavy piece metal he found in the ceiling. The other officer deployed the M26 striking the inmate in the
side and leg. This was the end of the incident. I can assure you that without the ADVANCED TASER this would
have resulted in the officers having to physically restrain the inmate and could have resulted in injuries to both the
inmate and the officers. There were no injuries to any one involved and the incident was brought to a successful
conclusion. Thanks Capt. C.I.Macdonald, Marion County Sheriff's Dept., Ocala Florida

Description:
Man in a wheelchair went berserk and began throwing his wheelchair against wall. Male, 36, approx. 6'-6'2"
although not real sure as the man previously had been in a wheelchair the entire time. Medicals prevented MK9
spray from being used because of a respiratory problem. Staff did not want to get near this subject due to the
strength of his throwing the wheelchair. The man was standing (without the need for a wheelchair). A WI DOC
Captain opened door 4-5 inches to show M26 w/o cartridge and used verbal judo to explain what the M26 was.
Lots of FUs replied. He sparked the M26 and aimed the laser. The inmate replied with several FU statements. Air
Cartridge loaded and fired at right shoulder/breast bone area and near upper right thigh from 7-8 feet away. Capt.
Molnar said the response of the inmate was: "Went to the floor immediately. Seemed like 8-10 seconds, but it was
only the 5-second discharge. He went down fast. He's been much quieter ever since." No injuries to correctional
staff or inmate occurred. Videotaped, but unclear if it captured the scene and he's checking on sending us the
tape. First use of TASER in WI DOC.

"I want to thank you and your company for responding quickly and professionally to our requests for the trade in.
We have already deployed the M26 ADVANCED TASER and, while we have not utilized it on anyone yet, we
have had reactions to it. Just recently, it was present during a confrontation with a violent subject. When the
subject merely saw the M26 his response was 'what the f__k is that?' He was advised that he did not want to
know and to comply with all commands. The subject did and was taken into custody without incident. During his
time in our holding cells, he continually inquired about the M26 and what it would do. Suffice it to say our first
deployment was a success without firing a shot. Again, thank you for your assistance in providing us with the
M26, I have heard nothing but rave reviews regarding its design and appearance." Officer Kevin R. Ellingsburg,
Director of Planning, Research and Training, Forest Grove Police Department

Description:
At about 0125 hours, 20-yr-old, male, 170 lb., Milwaukee PD lodged inmate in the Clackamas County Jail for
disorderly conduct. During the interview, inmate continuously told officers and deputies present how tough he
was. He claimed that he was a kick boxing champion and could take any of us. At one point inmate jumped up,
and started to threaten the arresting officer. Clackamas County Deputies X and Z restrained inmate and
handcuffed him to the bench.
Inmate was placed in isolation #1 and told to relax and just go to sleep. Inmate started to press the emergency
alarm call button. Inmate was told repeatedly to stop. Inmate then started to kick the door. I decided to place
handcuffs back on inmate to stop his disruption of the booking area. I had deputies X and Z line up to the left
with restraints and deputy Z open the door to the right. I stood back, and center, with the M26 ADVANCED
TASER. Inmate was crouching on the bench in isolation #1, and started demanding to be fed. I told inmate to sit
on the floor with his hands out to his side. Inmate made no move to comply, and continued to make demands. I
ordered inmate to sit on the floor with his hands out to his sides, or I would TASER him. During this time I had the
laser sight of the M26 ADVANCED TASER aimed at his chest. I decided due to inmate’s aggressive nature and
stated combative expertise, to use the M26 ADVANCED TASER to gain his compliance. At 0330, I fired the M26
ADVANCED TASER at inmate, striking him in the right little finger, and left leg to gain compliance on arrested
subject. Inmate went in to a prone position. I discontinued power after a few seconds. I again ordered inmate to
sit on the floor. He replied, “F*** you” and made no move to comply. I re-engaged the power, and held it for a
few more seconds. Inmate then complied, and was hand cuffed by deputies present. Due to inmate’s hand being
so close to the tank door, I pulled the M26 barb from his finger. The one in his leg was just attached to his pants.
I contacted medical and had a nurse come and check inmate. She wiped his puncture and put a Band-Aid on it.
She told me he was OK. I had the restraints removed at 0455 without incident. ACTIONS RECOMMENDED: Two
additional M26 ADVANCED TASERs be acquired for use. Users aim a little lower on their targets. When used
properly, the M26 ADVANCED TASER proved to be a very useful tool.

Description:
A 63-year-old subject involved in a domestic dispute fired shots outside of his girl friend's house, returned to his
residence and barricaded himself inside of his house. The subject refused to come out of his house after numerous
negotiation attempts. The subject came out onto his front porch with a .22 cal revolver in his hand and stated that
we were going to have to come in and get him. The subject then went back inside and locked all doors. The SWAT
team and SRT team members were notified and arrived quickly at the scene. SWAT and SRT members made entry
at the rear of the house. The subject was in bed with the .22 cal revolver in his hands. SWAT and SRT members
with ballistic shields swarmed the subject after deploying a flashbang grenade. The M26 ADVANCED TASER’s
Air Cartridge was removed and the M26 was applied as a touch stun device on the subject’s right side. The
subject cried out and released his hold on the gun. It was very effective in incapacitating the subject long enough
to remove the revolver from his hands. No members of the entry team or the suspect were injured during this
incident. The .22 cal revolver was loaded and ready to fire.

Description:
A man suspected under the influence of PCP held his wife hostage while standing behind an open refrigerator
door. An officer trained by Rick Smith demonstrated the sparks of an M26 to get attention of suspect. He then
added the Air Cartridge and turned the laser sight on to the man. The man asked, "Why are you pointing a gun a
me?" The officer then deployed the M26 firing into the back for 2.5 - 3 seconds. The suspect instantly froze and
went in to a fetal position. His arms were "Jell-O." The suspect was handcuffed and taken to a hospital (SOP).
The hospital staff informed the suspect that two probes had to be pulled out. The suspect had no clue that he had
two probes in him and didn't remember what had happened. The officer reported that despite his training, he was
somewhat reluctant to fire the M26, as he was the first to deploy the M26. He also said he shut the unit of early to
let the arresting officers put handcuffs on the suspect. Now that he has deployed it, he has "complete
confidence" in the M26. No injuries to officers or suspects occurred. The reporting officer added that the only
other option was using physical force against the suspect in a very confined area and that someone very likely
would have been hurt.
Comment:
Analysis: Suspect remained standing -- officers shut off the unit almost immediately.

fought with 3 officers and broke the finger of one of them. The suspect became agitated and began to throw his
food and yell at the deputies. When contacted, he became even more aggressive and charged at the deputies. The
Sgt. who responded took the M-26 along and "sparked it". The subject immediately became compliant, and was

The subject was an armed robbery suspect. When confronted by detectives, he refused to comply with verbal
commands to place his hands up and turn away from officers. Suspect was shot once in the chest with the M26
TASER, however he was wearing a large down jacket and the barbs did not penetrate to the body. The suspect
was given a full five-second burst and did not react in any way other than to say "OK" and place his hands up.
He was given a second burst with no apparent affect. The M-26 was reloaded but the suspect complied before he
could be shot in the legs. We did not get the effect we wanted which was a twitching, convulsing bad guy but he
did comply which is the ultimate goal! Note: The M26 probes failed to incapacitate on the first shot due to
clothing thickness over 2.5”. Compliance was gained prior to taking a second shot at areas of lower clothing
thickness.

Description:
A 5' 8'', 45 yr. old, with heavy build, mentally ill male subject was found hiding in basement with meat clever. The
subject was reportedly violent and afraid. Subject was ordered out of the basement but refused. Subject was
highly resistive and unpredictable. He displayed violent outbursts and was assaultive. Due to the presence of the
meat cleaver this could have escalated into a deadly force situation very easily. It was determined that due to the
presence of the meat cleaver, pepper spray would have been a disadvantage to the officers present as they could
have been blinded by the spray as well in confined quarters. No batons were used, as it would require getting too
close to the subject with an edged weapon. Control holds were never even considered. Two officers advanced
into the basement with ADVANCED TASER M26 and lethal force backup. An M26 was laser was activated on the
subject's chest. Subject displayed fear and confusion but more responsive to verbal orders. He inquired as to
what the red light was and was afraid the weapon would shoot him. The subject immediately surrendered himself
and the meat cleaver without any injuries to subject or to officers.
The TASER International M26 is the most worthwhile non-lethal weapon we have in our arsenal. The above listed
situation could have been a much different outcome if it were not for the TASER M26.
Comment: The TASER International M26 is the most worthwhile non-lethal weapon we have in our arsenal.
The above listed situation could have been a much different outcome if it were not for the TASER
M26.
Analysis: Pefect example of where the M26 has a tactical advantage over batons and pepper sprays.

Description:
At approximately 12:50 am on 5/28/00 a call was received at Mesa Verde on a suicidal subject with a knife. Officer
arrived at that location at approximately 1:06 am along with 3 other officers. Officers approached the residence and
the front door was ajar. Upon one officer's arrival to the front door he advised there was a person in a chair with
something in his hand, and the second officer advised that the object was a knife. A sergeant arrived a couple of
minutes later. An officer got upon the porch along with another officer. There was a white male, 5'10", 210 lb.
sitting in a chair with a small knife in his right hand pressed against his wrist. The white male was saying "Make
them stop." The subject becoming more agitated and started to press the knife against his wrist harder. The
sergeant deployed his ADVANCED TASER M26 but one of the darts missed the subject and struck the chair he
was sitting in. The other dart hit the subject in the chest. Another M26 shot was deployed from 7-11'' away.
Both darts struck the subject in the left arm for a 5-second cycle. The effect of the M26 was complete
immobilization of the subject. I set the M26 off two times to allow two officers to lay hands on the mentally
deranged subject. Once they had a hold of him they stood him up and handcuffed his right hand. The subect was
warned to comply or he would set the M26 turned on again. The subject complied. The two spent M26 Rounds
were retreived for booking. The hospital staff was advised that the mentally ill subject had been shot with the
M26. Injuries: Minor puncture from probe, no bleeding.

Description:
Order of detention indicated that a male 53 yr. old, 5'10", with heavy build suspect had a history of mental illness
and would resist officers. It was also reported that the suspect had a sword and would use it. Upon approaching
the front door the suspect opened the door and started shouting wildly and incoherently at the officers. Subject
slammed the door causing officers to forcibly enter the residence. The suspect's right hand was hidden behind a
drapery and he would not show it. The M26's red laser light was activated and placed on his chest. After seeing
the red laser beam, subject became very quiet and placed both hands on the wall. Subject immediately surrendered
but did not have a sword. Wristlocks were authorized control holds that were applied during handcuffing
techniques after the laser light activation. He answered all questions and cooperated until being handcuffed.
After being cuffed he went berserk and had to be carried to a cruiser. He was transported to mental health center
without injury to him or officers.
Chemical spray and blunt instruments were not used since this would have placed officers too close to harms way
if a sword was available. This could have been a very dangerous situation if the mentally ill subject did have a
sword under his control. Only one day earlier a Columbus Police officer was attacked by a man believed to be
mentally ill. This man had a sword and cut the officer before being shot and killed. Luckily the Columbus Officer
was not seriously injured. Situation was high risk due to report of mental illness and the possibility of a sword. 24
hours earlier Columbus Police Officer shot and killed a suspect with a sword so there was high media coverage on
this one.
So far, on high-risk situations, the activation of the laser light has caused our subjects to stop hostilities and
become passive. If this continues, I feel that this is without a doubt the best $500.00 our department has ever
spent.
Comment: I feel that this is without a doubt the best $500.00 our department has ever spent.

Description:
An M26 was utilized to cause incapacitation of an unruly offender that had been dousing Correctional Officers
with urine. The youthful (approximately 18 years old) offender was within a segregation cell and continued to be
disruptive and defiant of staff orders to comply with restraint procedures. Because of the offender's continued
disobedience, the M26 was utilized to cause incapacitation so that staff could safely enter the cell and apply
mechanical restraints. The M26 was discharged at a distance of about 12 feet and struck the subject in the lower
extremity causing immediate dysfunction. The target subject was anticipating the M26 use and made a feeble
attempt to block the projectiles using a pillow. When the laser was raised, subject raised pillow exposing lower
extremities allowing for target acquisition. I fired the unit for 2 full 5-seconds durations. Inmate said, "That shit
ain't nothin' nice." We had just completed user certification training for 4 staff members prior to the application. I
wonder what he would have said/done if the batteries were new. The video is pretty good.
Comment: "That shit ain't nothin' nice."
Analysis: Countermeasure by inmate using pillow failed. Shot was aimed a lower extremities to
avoid the attempted pillow block

Description:
A suicidal, heavy, 40-yr-old male, 5'11" was holding a boxcutter to his throat threatening to kill himself. He was
sitting in the driver’s seat of a van with the windows down. The driver's door was open and window of the
passenger door was down. Negotiations were not progressing with subject becoming more and more agitated.
Subject would not lower or rid himself of the knife. Decision was made to use the M26. Officer speaking with
subject was given a visual cue that M26 was to be deployed, he moved out of the way. The discharging officer
then fired the M26 through the open window of the passenger door. M26 was deployed from 6 feet away causing
subject to drop the boxcutter and to be taken into custody without injury to officers or subject. Probes hit subject
and penetrated skin on right mid-chest line and right hip. The subject dropped the boxcutter as he reacted to the
discharge. Subject was then moved onto the ground during the 5-second discharge. No injuries occurred from
penetration.
After deployment, subject was handcuffed and searched but was very clam and cooperative with medics and
officers. EMS removed the probes. Subject was taken to the mental health facility at a local hospital. Stated he had
two beers. Danger was to himself and to our officer who was negotiating and wave very close (6" to 1 ft) from
subject. Chemical spray was not used because subject never removed boxcutter from neck. Deployment of any
other less-lethal or physical/chemical methods may have resulted in subject cutting himself or others before being
able to bring under control. Subject was taken to the hospital for psychiatric care. Subject on way to the hospital
said that it felt like his "guts" were on fire. Said he never wanted to be hit again.
Comment:
Analysis: Excellent tactic of cueing an officer to get out of the way when negotiations failed.

Description:
Phoenix Police went to a Circle K at 67th & McDowell about 4am after getting a call from a convenience store
across the street. There was a report of gunfire being shot in the air. Police found an unusual dynamic scene with
a suspect with slight build, mid 30-s, 140 lb., struggling with his girlfriend, over a .380 semi-automatic pistol. It
appeared the woman had a graze would to her foot and that both were either alcohol or drug intoxicated. That led
to a standoff at the store with PHX Tactical Services Bureau. Suspect was being bearhugged by his girlfriend. He
beat her about the face but she continued to hold on to him expressing fear that he would be shot with firearm. He
wavered his gun. He oscillated the gun back and forth by pointing the gun at her head and then his own head. At
one point suspects asked negotiators for water. Special Assignment officers surrounded him with lethal cover
and sniper teams were set up. When he walked over to get the bottle, tactical officers sneaked up behind him with
a M26 ADVANCED TASER M26. Ballengee was hit with two probes. He wore no shirt. The probes hit in the
upper shoulder and left buttock. He was immediately incapacitated during the 5-second cycle of the M26. During
the arrest, he began to resist and underwent another 5-second cycle. He was arrested without injury to himself or
officers.
Lt. Markley noted that this was a situation where the M26 saved Ballengee's life as he pointed his gun several
times at his girlfriend. TV Channels 3, 5, 10, 12, & 15 filmed Phoenix Police shooting a man with M26 live on TV.
Comment:
Analysis: Excellent use of shooting a subject from a hidden officer and using the distraction of
throwing bottled water to get a clean shot at the shirtless back muscles

Description:
SWAT officer responded to a violent, suicidal, 5'11", 190 lb., 28-yr. old male subject who was threatening to jump
off of a two-story roof. The subject was also armed with a large butcher knife and on unknown types of drugs. He
was not complying with officers' orders to drop the weapon or to move away from the roof. The subject was
delusional and without warning, he stood and walked towards officers and stated "Here take it" and pointed the
knife at the officers. An officer shot the subject from a distance of 7-11 feet with the M-26 ADVANCED TASER
and delivered the full 5- second burst. Probes hit subject near right chest and right beltline. The subject
immediately dropped to the ground and yelled "Get off, get it off!" He was handcuffed and probes were removed
on scene at that time with no injuries and without further incident. Subject's final comment: He asked what had
just happened.

Description:
SWAT officers were activated in reference to a domestic dispute with a male, 50, subject armed with a firearm and
shots fired. The subject came out of the house and a police K-9 was deployed to subdue the subject. The dog
took the subject to the ground, however he was kicking the dog and was not complying with the officers’ orders.
The M26 was then deployed at 7-11 ft with one probe striking and penetrating him in the upper chest area. The
second probe did not penetrate his clothing and bounced off to the side. The M26 delivered a 5-second charge
that was able to render the subject's upper body incapable of continuing with his aggressive behavior at which
time he was taken into custody.
Subject received moderate injuries from dog bites as a result of the use of a K-9 however there were only the probe
wounds as a result of the use of the TASER. Medical staff removed probe. No injuries occurred to officers.

Description:
APD Field Officers pulled a male suspect, 43,175 lb., over for traffic violations and during their investigation
suspect refused to cooperate. Suspect believed police had no authority and was anti-government. At some point
during the initial investigation suspect rolled up his windows on his camper truck and officer's observed a
handgun and two bayonets. Officer's at the scene then moved to a position of advantage and attempted to make
P.A. announcements to try and get the suspect to exit his vehicle and surrender. After the suspect ignored all
commands given and began moving about in his camper causing a great safety concern the SWAT team was
activated. The SWAT team was called for a barricaded and armed subject and upon arrival team members took
their positions. After several attempts to negotiate with the subject he attempted to drive off into the
neighborhood where he was stopped. As his vehicle went forward a spike belt flattened his tires and gas was
deployed into the camper. The vehicle did stop and the suspect made no further attempts to drive off, but still
refused to come out or talk with negotiators. As time went on the suspect finally exited his vehicle with his hands
clear, but it was still unknown where the handgun was. The suspect was very violent acting and began yelling
while attempting to walk away from the area. A K-9 was deployed and had a strong bite on the suspect's left
forearm. The suspect who was still on his feet seemed to be unaffected by the dog despite injuries to his arm. A
H&K 40-mm foam baton round was deployed. The t-shirted suspect again was not affected, so using cover, two
SWAT officers equipped with the M26 TASERs advanced. The first TASER deployed only had one probe
attached to the suspect's upper middle chest that had no effect. A second M26 was immediately deployed
ADVANCED TASER and both probes made contact on the subject on upper center chest and lower center chest.
Right away he went to the ground and after letting the M26 cycle the full 5-seconds. Officer's approached
suspect. The suspect started to again refuse to cooperate so the TASER was activated again at which time the
suspect did comply and was handcuffed. No injuries occurred to officers. Comment: Suspect made comment to
medic that he didn't remember the dog bite after the TASER was deployed.
Comment: Suspect made comment to medic that he didn't remember the dog bite after the TASER was
deployed.
Analysis: 2ND SHOT EFFECTIVE. Tactically, having two M26s present may have saved injuries
to officer and suspect as this was an example of a one-probe hit that was ineffective.
However, having had a second M26 immediately available stopped this suspect. A FOX
Newscopter dramatically caught this incident on video and is used for training purposes.

Responded to a violent male EDP resisting arrest and fled on foot to a local supermarket. Once inside subject
annoyed customers and employee. Officers located the subject who aggressively resisted police presence. Two
ESU units on scene deployed two ADVANCED TASERs and illuminated subject with laser sight. Subject started
to comply with the officers until the laser sight was turned off to cuff the subject. This led to a short scuffle and
the subject was physically controlled. M26 laser sight was not taken off the subject but the officer felt firing the
M26 at point blank range to be unsafe. Officer's comment: Subject cursed out the officer with the M26 and
challenged him multiple times to fire his M26. (The officer controlled the subject with his M26 laser sight and
verbal commands.) Subject arrested without injuries to officers or suspect.

Description:
At approximately 21:36 hrs, officers attended an attempted suicide call involving a knife. On arrival the roommate
of the subject met officers in the lobby of the apartment building. The roommate stated the subject was upstairs in
the apartment stabbing himself with a knife.
Officers made their way to the apartment, opened the apartment door and observed the male standing in the
washroom. The floor of the apartment was covered in blood. Officers told the male to drop the knife. At this time
the subject started to stab himself in the neck with a 7-inch bladed knife. Constable deployed the M26 at the
subject. The subject dropped the knife and was immediately incapacitated. The M26 was activated for approx. 2
seconds and fired from a distance of 7 feet. The top probe struck him in the chest area, bottom probe in the waist
area. Two follow-up activations were required, as the subject was noncompliant. Once the subject was controlled,
the full extent of the self-mutilation was observed: numerous stab wounds to the stomach, throat and slit wrists.
The officers at this scene stated the subject was extremely motivated and intent on killing himself. Paramedics
were on scene and dealt with his injuries. Subject was transported immediately to hospital. There was no alcohol
or drugs involved with the subject, just a straight EDP-Suicidal.
Comment: Comment of the ADVANCED TASER M26 operator: "I think the TASER saved his life. Thanks to
Sgt. Darren Laur of Victoria City Police for bringing this life saving technology into Canada.”
Analysis: The M26 probably saved this suspect's life and was used against a 7 inch knife

Description:
At 20:45 hrs, Tues 4 July 2000, Officers attended an attempt suicide call involving a knife. Two constables made
their way to the apartment, opened the apartment door and observed the 39-yr-old, male subject sitting on a couch
in the living room. He was holding a 12" filet knife and had a pillow across his lap. The subject had been drinking
and was depressed over the fact he had recently experienced a stroke. The subject would not put down the knife
and started poking himself in the chest area (over his heart) and along his throat. He asked officers where he
should cut himself. The pillow blocked a clear front shot, officers had to reposition themselves to obtain an angled
shot. The M26 was fired from a distance of 15 feet. The top dart struck the subject in his left forearm; the bottom
dart struck the pillow. The circuit was completed momentarily until the subject moved the pillow. The M26
shooter reloaded a second cartridge. At this time, the subject started using the pillow to block any follow up shot.
The second constable distracted the subject; this enabled the M26 shooter to take a second shot. The top dart
struck subjects left armpit area; bottom dart stuck his left hip area. The M26 went through the first full 5-second
cycle before shutting off. The subject still kept the knife in his hands and would not drop the weapon. A second
full 5-second cycle was activated. The knife was dropped immediately and subject complied with the demands of
officers. The subject was controlled and handcuffed. The M26 caused no injuries to suspect or officers. The
subject was transported to the hospital where three probes were removed. The subject was admitted for
psychiatric assessment.
Comment: Using the M26 was "...like turning a switch on and off. The effects were 100% incapacitating while it
was on, but when shut off he was fine. I could not distinguish any residual effects."
Analysis: 2ND SHOT EFFECTIVE. Excellent distraction used to stop a pillow which was used as a
countermeasure.

residence yelling. The first officer went to the right and the M26 officer went to the left. The third officer
approached also to the right. As officers approached the suspect, from about 18 to 20 feet away, the M26
ADVANCED TASER was turned on and the laser dot was placed on the male, 39, suspect, 5'10", 160-lb.
This suspect, who in the past has always fought with police, immediately saw the dot on his chest and without
hesitation raised his hands and advised officers he has 3 knives on his person. He was taken into custody without
incident. No injuries occurred to officers or suspects.
Comment: After being handcuffed, the suspect stated "is that one of those TASERs I read about in the
newspaper" The officer stated yes.

DETAILS
Description:
Officers were dispatched to an EDP, suicidal, violent, 45-yr-old, male, 200 lb., 5’11, who was or already had taken
some type of drugs. As officers were attempting to reason with the suspect, he jumped up into the contact officer
face and started to take a fighting stance. The cover officer then unholstered the ADVANCED TASER and as the
suspect became more combative, cover officer then brought the M26 on to the target. As the M26 came onto the
target, the suspect started to charge the cover officer. The cover officer fired the first M26 at the suspect and the
top probe struck the suspect in the chest and the bottom missed the suspect. The contact officer then unholstered
and fired the second M26 at the suspect striking the suspect in the back and left arm. The suspect managed to
tackle the cover officer. The cover officer then made contact with the M26 to the suspect's back. As the suspect
and the cover officer went down, the contact officer then made contact to the suspect's buttock area. The contact
officer then made contact with the M26 to the left side of the suspect's neck. The suspect finally went to the
ground and officers manually got control of the suspect and cuffed him. The suspect stated that he wanted
officers to shoot him. Subject’s comment: If officers don't kill him then he will. Officers considered the M26 a
successful tool. No injuries to officers or suspects and only one probe penetrated skin that was removed on
scene.
AFTERACTION REPORT conversation with M26 shooter on 7/18/00: Definitely a "Suicide by Cop” situation w/
the Sgt. Deploying a M26 out of holster against violent EDP who wanted to be shot and killed by a firearm. Sgt.
shot top probe between nipples. 2nd probe missed or didn't stick. Sgt. thinks his M26 may have been canted at an
angle as this was a ‘quick draw.’ While in the air to tackle Sgt., suspect shot w/ 2nd M26. "Looking back on
hindsight, the guy tackled me right as he was hit." Suspect was aiming for a high tackle but went low probably
from the effects of the M26. Suspect fell on Sgt. and he used his own M26 against the buttock and then against
the neck where it was immediately successful. "The neck shot shut him down. He went fetal; stick a fork in him.
He went to mush. His hands were mush when I went to cuff him. It took the fight out of him until about an hour
later." His Chief is very happy with 4 of 4 laser sights stopping suspects (especially effective in stopping one of
the local men who will fight every time the police are called out. He's notorious for fighting and the laser sight
stopped him. This M26 incident makes it 5 for 5 in success. Note his swivel holster was removed during fight. He
put it in his back pocket at one point to keep it secure. His partner threw his M26 and the Sgt. told him that the
women that were present could have used it against the officers.
Comment:
Analysis: Shows how the stun gun backup is good, but only when it was moved from a large muscles
to the neck where there was immobilization when the subject hitting a pressure point.
Also, a an after action report revealed some key insight into the second shot that is well
worth reading.

Description:
Officers received a 911-disturbance call to a house trailer. The subject’s mother requested removal of an
emotionally disturbed subject who was intoxicated with cocaine and dying of AIDS. Officers on scene found male
subject, 34, located in living room / kitchen area. Upon refusing to comply and walking away and towards the
hallway and bedroom area the M26 was activated but unfortunately the air cartridge malfunctioned. The Air
Cartridge was removed and replaced with the same bad cartridge but subject retreated to the bedroom. The
subject did not respond to negotiations and was verbally non-compliant. Other officers arrived on scene including
one with a second M26. Negotiations were unsuccessful with subject. Officers made entry with the M26. The
second M26 and a beanbag officer simultaneously deployed the second M26 with the addition of a beanbag round
with very successful results. Subject immediately went into a fetal position during the 5-second cycle while other
officers arrested him. M26 officer was hurt when subject threw a knife immediately prior to being shot by M26 and
beanbag round. (Knife was never seen during entire confrontation). Officer was injured with knife in forearm.
Subject was uninjured and probes were removed at Jail/Hospital.
Comment:

that a knife was present.

door open. Would display a knife when we got close to him and was verbally non-compliant. When we backed up
he would put the knife away. We were able to talk him out of the cab of the truck. However, we were unable to
get him to leave the truck. Subject turned his back to me and reached in to the cab of the truck. I thought he was
getting the knife, so I deployed the TASER from 7-11 feet away striking the subject at upper mid back and the
lower right back for five-second cycle. Medical personnel removed probes. Suspect had minor injuries with
skinned knees from fall to the ground. No officer injuries occurred. Subject’s comment: "I was just getting a

Description:
Police officer detained a male subject, 45-yr-old, 5’6, 150 lb., convicted/deported felon sex offender who had
re-entered the U.S. Subject resisted detention and was verbally non-compliant while officer waited for a response
from INS and walked/ran away from him. Officer pursued and pushed the subject down, but lost control of his
flashlight in doing so. The subject gained control of the officer’s flashlight and used it to effectively blind the
officer. Giles retreated and tried to deploy OC spray. OC deployment was not successful and the subject
advanced, still using the light. The possibility of unseen weapons existed and the subject also had an effective
impact weapon in the flashlight. Officer deployed his ASP Baton and tried to strike the light and/or subject's
hands and arm. The strikes landed, but not effectively and the subject still advanced toward the officer. Officer
deployed his OC spray again, this time with better success. The subject stopped advancing, but still held the light
and would not obey the repeated commands of the officer to, "Get on the ground!" A backup officer arrived to
assist. He saw the officer with ASP Baton still deployed, and the subject in a standoff. The backup officer ordered
the subject to the ground. The suspect did not comply. The backup officer aimed his M26 ADVANCED TASER
7-11 ft at center mass of the subject's chest. The subject fell back against a fence and then to the ground during a
3-second cycle. All resistance stopped. The subject was taken into custody without incident. The probes only
penetrated clothing hitting the upper mid chest and lower mid-chest. He became combative again at the hospital
and jail. Suspect also suffered minor ASP strike to the hand, and OC contamination.
Comment: Officer’s comment: The subject was under the influence of alcohol and blew a .3 BAC. Subject had
no memory or even knowledge of being hit with the M26 ADVANCED TASER. He did not recall
being hit with the ASP Baton either. He did remember the OC and stated it burned his eyes and face.
No injuries occurred to officers.

Description:
Two young men were spotted in a growing crowd outside a pool hall. Officer on scene anticipated a fight in
progress, but instead found two men were in progress of slashing their wrists in an apparent suicide attempt. One
man slashed his wrists in the presence of the officer. The officer then pointed an ADVANCED TASER M26 at the
other youth and prevented further mutilation by aiming the M26 using verbal commands. Both men were taken
into custody and transported to medical for treatment. No injuries to officers. Officer’s comments: When
confronted with the choice of being exposed to the TASER gun versus cutting his wrists, the young man wisely
chose to drop his razor. It’s nice to have a non-lethal weapon that prevented someone from harming themselves.
In this case it prevented law enforcement from possible injury.

Description:
A 30 yr-old, male, 5’8 heavy to medium build DUI suspect became upset upon learning of his arrest. The suspect
became verbally and physically aggressive in a dark parking lot. Officer was alone for 7 minutes until assistance
arrived. The area was confided and the suspect's family members came into the area. Subsequent to handcuffing
subject became verbally aggressive and wanted to know why he was being arrested. The M26 was pointed at the
subject with the laser sight on his chest. He became more aggressive and threatened the officer. He became more
aggressive and the officer put the M26 in his pocket and grabbed the suspect’s right arm and wrist. Subject
tensed up and resisted arrest by struggling. Another officer used knee strikes to leg using PPCT on common
paronial area without success. Wrist locks and arm bars were also unsuccessful. Suspect continued to struggle
and was not able to place under arrest. The officers backed off and activated the M26 from 18 inches away.
Suspect immediately slumped to the ground during the 5-second cycle. Suspect landed on his back with the
probes in his upper right shoulder blade with a few inches of spread. Subject immediately complied with verbal
commands. He was handcuffed and became combative again. Supervisor removed probes on scene. No injuries
to officers were sustained. Suspect suffered minor probe wounds.
Comment:
Analysis: M26 dropped suspect despite very short spread of the probes of several inches.

Description:
A 22-yr-old, male 5’8, medium build renewed his fight with another male subject. Suspect was thought to originally
be the aggressor of an assault per witness. An officer got between the two fighting males. The ADVANCED
TASER M26 was deployed and pointed at one of the suspects and ordered to get on his knees. Suspect ignored
verbal commands and balled his fist up and stepped toward the officer. At 10 feet away, the officer shot the
advancing suspect. Both probes struck the suspect, one in the middle of his chest and the other in his abdomen
near the belly button. The suspect screamed and his hands shot upwards. The suspect tangled the wires with his
upward moving hand. The officer let the M26 cycle for 2-seconds, but feared the suspect would break the wires
by accident. He then speed loaded a 2nd Air Cartridge in the event another shot was required. The M26 was
pointed at the suspect and told not to move or he would be fired upon again. The suspect cried out, "No mas, no
mas!" (meaning no more). The suspect was on his knees moving, but not trying to get up. He followed commands
was cooperative and was arrested without further incident. The M26 caused no injury to suspect or to officers
present and photographs were taken. As it turned out, the suspect was a victim in the original assault but became
agitated when the two were reunited and the victim tried to get even.

DETAILS
Description:
A suspect was under the influence of PCP. A M26 was fired at him. One probe hit in the earlobe and the other in
the back. Two activations were cycled without knocking him down and then he pulled it from his earlobe. Suspect
took three more activations with one probe in his back and he was noticeably impaired until he fell and was
arrested without further incident. No further injuries reported.
Comment:
Analysis: The shot from earlobe to upper back did not take down the suspect. Most likely cause:
the lack of major muscle groups in this area sufficient to cause take down. However, it is
interesting to note that this suspect remained erect during stimulation to the head area.
Once he pulled the probe free from his ear-lobe, he took three hits in a single dart
configuration -- which was more effective. Since he was outside, the current passed
throug the ground, up through his legs to complete the circuit to the remaining probe in his
back.

DETAILS
Description:
The 5’9, 21-yr-old, 160-lb., male inmate in question was drunk on pruno and gassing sworn personnel. (Pruno is
jail made alcohol. The inmates hoard fruit and then allow it to ferment. Gassing is a legal term in CA and is a crime.
Any time an inmate throws fluids or substances on a deputy, usually his own waste, this is considered a
gassing). Inmate also had access to a shank. Two short bursts of Deep Freeze (CS/OC) blend were directly
sprayed on him. This failed to gain compliance. The ADVANCED TASER M26 was fired through the cell bars
from 7-11 feet away. Both probe probes penetrated skin: one in his groin and the other in his back. The inmate
experienced a full 5-second cycle, but the configuration of the cell caused him to be propped up. It was obvious
that his left side locked out and he cried out in pain. When the cycle completed the M26 was activated again prior
to the cell extraction teams entry. A 2-second burst was applied and was discontinued when the team approached
and subdued inmate due to concern that the deputies might be effected due to the fact that the cell floor was
covered with water.
The feeling of those present was that the M26 was completely effective and videotaped it. The cell extraction team
secured the inmate with no further incident.
Comment: Officer’s comment: The inmate made no comments about the M26. He was in pain from the
lingering effects of the Deep Freeze and was more concerned about receiving relief from this
discomfort. He appeared to pay little attention to the removal of the darts by medical personnel due
to his discomfort from the chemicals.
Deputies couldn’t figure out how the inmate got one dart in his groin and the other in his back
either, but that's where they removed the darts. Obviously he was twisting while being shot
although this is not that obvious from the tape.
Analysis: Inmate was immobilized, but propped up by the configuration of the cell.

Description:
Due to overcrowding at the County Jail, a 30-yr-old male 5’11, 180 inmate was instructed to put on handcuffs and
shackles so that he could be transferred to another facility. The inmate then stated that the only way he was going
to leave the jail was to be unconscious. This inmate has been in several altercations with correctional officers,
other inmates and has known to resist arrest with violence on the streets. The inmate was told twice to put on the
shackles and handcuffs twice and refuse, taking a defensive stance. He was then shot with the ADVANCED
TASER M26 with both probes penetrating the skin in the middle chest and stomach. He immediately fell. The M26
was only deployed once and it was estimated that it cycled app. 3 seconds. There were no injuries to the inmate
or the correctional officers that were involved. Probes were removed on scene. This was the day after we had nine
officers trained as instructors.
Comment: Inmate’s comment: "What the hell did you do that for? All you had to do was tell me what you
wanted me to do. Please don't shoot me again."

Description:
Responded to assist Glen Cove City PD with call of a violent EDP locked in his private residence. Officers at scene
could not control subject (he is a former boxer attempting to knock out anyone who would challenge him).
Emergency Service Unit deployed two teams with a supervisor and entered the residence. The 46 yr-old, 275 lb., 6'3
male, subject resisted control techniques and physically overpowered the teams. At this point the ADVANCED
TASER M26 was deployed from 7-11 feet away. Both probes penetrated skin, one in the upper mid-chest and the
other in the abdomen. The subject bent over and fell to the floor. The M26 cycled for the full 5-seconds. It got
his attention. The subject was then handcuffed and removed to an ambulance. In route to the hospital the subject
was escorted by an ESU officer with M26 probes in place if further control was needed. By the officer and
ambulance paramedics own words, this subject stayed calm knowing he could get TASERed again. No injuries to
officer or suspect were sustained. Medical staff removed probes.
Comment: Officer’s comment: (Prior to being TASERed, the subject did not care what the police officers said
or did. When the laser sight was put on the subject he laughed and continued to challenge all
personal with physical harm.) When TASERed the subject said "Oh...Oh" (Moaning) He screamed
in pain, got his senses about him ten to fifteen seconds after deployment cycle. He said, "Don't do
that again. O.K, I'll give. Don't do that again." Officer’s personal comment: "It was a great feeling to
see it work Yes ...full five seconds. Thank you for a great product. My guys got their faith back in
TASERs (yours of course). Bob"

Description:
At 0200 an officer arrived on scene where two officers were actively struggling on the ground to arrest a 5’9,
medium build, 22 yr-old male who had been stopped for a traffic violation/fight. The subject actively resisted as
the officers attempted to place him in cuffs and a hobble restraint. While the subject was on his stomach, the
ADVANCED TASER officer removed the cartridge, yelled clear and made contact with M26 stun gun on the upper
mid-back. Although the officer could hear it activated, it did not appear to have any effect. The officer activated
the M26 touch stun again and it did not appear to have any effect as the subject continued to fight. Officers were
able to get the cuffs on the subject and place hobble restraints on him. Even in this position the subject continued
to struggle and curse at the officers. It was necessary to carry the subject to the patrol car and into the booking
area. While on the floor of the booking cell, the subject continued to curse at and threaten officers while being
searched. During the search, the subject had a small plastic container with marijuana and a jock strap containing
more marijuana. After being searched, the subject was left on the floor for several minutes. At 0230, the officer
looked at the area where the M26 stun was applied and there were two red marks. Officer asked the subject if he
was injured or if any medical attention was requested for any reason. The subject said no. Subject was still
defiant and photos were taken of his body. Officer reported that the subject had heavy clothes on and listed the
M26’s effects only as "unknown."
Comment: Officer’s comments: "Subject seemed unaffected. May have been blocked by clothing. Very
possible" under the influence of drugs and alcohol. None of the officer present heard the M26
officer yell "clear TASER."
Analysis: There were two small red marks on the upper back -- which would indicate that the stun
arc had probably penetrated -- it sounds like the pain compliance effect was insufficient.
Moreover, the M26 needs to be applied to a pressure point area for better effects. Also,
the officer asked the subject if he was injured and the subject replied, "No." Subject was
also asked if needed any medical attention for whatever reason with a negative reply.

An intoxicated male sliced his wrists with a piece of glass and ran from police. Covered in blood, the man hid in
some bushes and refused to obey police commands. An officer stood 4 feet away and fired an ADVANCED
TASER at the subject. The man fell immediately to the ground during the 5-second cycle. Officer’s comments:
"He was very non-compliant and very drunk. Even in that state he wanted no more. He said, ‘I’m not going to
move. Don’t electrocute me again.’" The man was taken to a medical center where a doctor examined him and
found no injury. The man was given a CAT scan to determine whether the darts and electricity caused any tissue
damage. Subject suffered cuts from suicide attempt but no injuries from the TASER.

DETAILS
Description:
At 1200, officer received call of a jail disturbance and told to bring ADVANCED TASER. The officer was
instructed to move 3 state inmates in Cell 4 to the Federal side. One inmate complied and two didn’t. The inmates
were given 3 chances to move peacefully with a 5-10 minute period between each encounter. At all encounters,
each inmate stated they weren’t moving even if the CERT Team came. Each stated they were willing to fight. The
exterior door of Cell 4 was opened, two inmates dropped sheets and they had towels wrapped around their necks,
mouths and noses. They were more than ready to combat any OC product.
The M26 laser was aimed at the inmate on the left. The inmate was asked if he was ready to move and his reply
(paraphrased): Sure, I’ve got my stuff packed, let’s go. The other inmate also agreed to move to the other cell
without further incident.
Comment: Officer’s comments: "I truly feel without the aid of the M26 there would have been a physical
altercation wit the high probability of one officer and one inmate sustaining injuries."

DETAILS
Description:
At 1600 a male, 6’1 294-lb. 24-yr-old inmate demanded recreation time. Inmate was improperly dressed to go
outside for recreation as he had ripped his uniform to shreds and had rags draped on his body. His genitals were
exposed. His bed was overturned on its side and was feces on the floor where he had urinated. Inmate complied
officer directions after six officers were present in a forceful authoritative state. Inmate was transferred to new cell
so his bed could be bolted down and room cleaned. While in the new cell, the inmate was instructed to dress in
another jumpsuit. The inmate failed to comply and the M26 was used in the stun mode on the inmate’s lower back.
Inmate tried to move away but the officer followed him with the M26 so the full 5-second cycle would be felt.
Inmate broke contact only briefly. Inmate again refused to dress in the jumpsuit and the M26 was applied. The
inmate quickly dressed and was instructed to sit with his back to the door and place his hands on his head. The
officer went to retrieve another jumpsuit as the one provided already was torn and the officer didn’t want the
inmate tearing another suit.
While the officer was out, he heard other officers yell “BINGO” and the inmate was sprayed with Freeze + P
chemicals. 30 minutes later the cellblock had been cleaned and the bed bolted to the floor. Officers went to
retrieve the inmate who was walking around the cellblock. A M26 was armed during the entry. Inmate refused
commands to sit down. When he didn’t comply, the officer fired the M26. One probe went in the lower back just
below the shoulder blade. The other probe hit the left side of the stomach. The inmate dropped immediately,
screamed and rolled around. The probes were 8-10 inches apart. Inmate was transferred to his cell with an arm bar
hold. Inmate and officer sustained no injuries.

Description:
A violent EDP, male, 35-yr-old, 5'9," 180-lb., inmate has a combative and violent history with other deputies.
Inmate refused to lockdown in his cell following an argument with on-scene deputy. Upon arrival, the supervisor
drew his ADVANCED TASER M26 and turned off the safety. From approximately 10 feet, the laser dot was placed
on the inmate’s chest as he was yelling with his arms flailing. Subject was instructed to lockdown as other
deputies began to arrive. Inmate lowered his arms, turned and walked into his cell. His door was closed and safety
was restored. Officer’s comment: Upon entering his cell, he turned and stated "Mr. Garrett, don't shoot me in the
eye with that, please." - Maybe meaning the Laser, but it worked! No injuries to officers or inmate occurred.

Description:
Police were called to a domestic violence situation and found the 35-yr-old, 6’2, 240-lb., male suspect at phone
booth. Suspect was on alcohol and tried to leave the location. Police then verbally instructed the suspect to sit
down which he did. Suspect then got back up and started to take an aggressive stance towards the sergeant
telling him he didn't have to do what the sergeant said. This suspect had a prior contact earlier in the evening with
officers and was earlier subdued with the threat of pepper spray. At this point the suspect was non-compliant
and the sergeant deployed the M26 firing at suspect from 10 to 12 feet. As soon as the suspect was hit with the
M26 he went down. Immediate results. After a few seconds, he started to get up again, the sergeant asked if the
suspect if wanted to be hit again and suspect replied, "NO!" Probes were right arm and right upper thigh. One
probe penetrated skin. Suspect was cuffed and placed in the county hospital for probe removal as required in
General Orders. No injuries occurred to officers or suspect.
Comment: Officer's Comment: Sergeant was very impressed with the results.

Description:
A stout, 185-200 lb., 45-yr-old, female subject was served a warrant for transport to a mental health facility. When
deputies were in the apt. to put her in custody, she suddenly went very violent and physical force was tried. She
threw 2 officers against the wall. She broke away from 2 officers and ran to kitchen area. After trying to grab a
kitchen knife, the officers backed off and sprayed the women with pepper spray. She laughed. She continued to
go for a knife, when an officer fired a M26 from 3-7 feet away at her while she was turning to get to a knife in a
drawer. The probes hit her near her left side and the other near her left hip area. The spread was 6-8" apart and
both had penetrated through clothing and into skin. During the first 5-sec cycle she did not go down, said, "turn
that damn thing off," and was not subdued.
When the cycle ended she tried to pull out one of the probes while reaching for a knife with her other hand. A
second 5-second burst was applied at which time she went to her knees and she was handcuffed. The M26
shooter stated that the woman trembled with minor pulsings and clinched her hands during the cycles. The
woman was given verbal commands to get down. The 2nd cycle stopped her from getting to the knife. After the
2nd cycle she then complied with the officers commands, but was not knocked to the ground by the M26. Rick
Smith & Steve Tuttle interviewed Sgt. Gene Wise, who later showed on scene after this event as a supervisor. We
spoke with the supervisor, M26 the shooter and briefly with the Chief.
Supervisor had concern that the woman didn't go down to the deck. Toward the end of the 2nd cycle, the M26
shooter said the woman became more compliant. Supervisor inquired what might have happened. Note: New
Duracell Ultras were new out of the package on Aug 30th w/ exp. of 2006. There was trace amounts of blood on
the probes upon inspection. The M26 shooter said the arcing "seemed kind of loud." However, it still sounds like
there was good connection. The probes may have hit the area identified by the RCMP’s testing as a weak point
for muscle contraction -- the side torso area between hip and armpit. The RCMP testing on human volunteers has
found that while hits in this area are highly uncomfortable, this area is characterized by lack of major muscle
groups. Hence there is insufficient muscle contraction to drop a focused combatant hit in this area. The M26
shooter and supervisor confirmed that the probes were close to that area.
Supervisor had requested 6 more M26s for his use, but we will send a loaner M26 so that two M26s could be fired
if a similar situation occurred. Tactically, we couldn't see any problems given the nature of a small room, chaos, a
potentially lethal situation and officers who were doing all the right things. We could only suggest shooting at
the back (impossible at that time) and shooting to get more spread (impossible because of space restrictions) and
having a second M26 used (impossible, as they didn't have a 2nd one).
One deputy was disabled by pepper spray and the woman had two small puncture wound.
Comment: Officer’s comment: At the mental facility Subject was ask about her really bad day. She told the
Doctor her day wasn't so bad and that she had been having fun all day. Overall, the use was
considered a success in that the M26 stopped her from getting to the knife, and obtained
compliance without the need to escalate to the next level of force.
Analysis: Shot to the area in the armpit - to hip region -- stopped her from grabbing knife, but did not
put her on the ground. Suggest a second, simultaneous M26 deployment in this scenario.

Description:
Officers responded to a male suspect's house on report of a suicidal subject. Officers found the 26-yr-old, 195-lb.,
6’4 subject had destroyed the interior of the house with a baseball bat. Subject was under the influence of alcohol
and retained access to the baseball bat. He drank rum as the incident progressed. Subject was extremely
emotionally as he recently had his wife, then his girlfriend leave him. The house he destroyed had been
repossessed. Glass and broken items were strewn all over the house. This created a risk of injury to the subject
and officers if they tried arrest control tactics, due to possible injury on the broken items if the fight were to go to
the ground. The subject still had access to the bat, which negated use of a baton, and too much distance for use
of OC spray. After an hour (+) of negotiations, the subject turned his back on officers and he was shot with the
M26 in the back from 7-11 feet away. The M26 cycled for 5-seconds. He was not wearing a shirt and both probes
penetrated the skin into right upper chest and right middle abdomen. He immediately fell to the ground and was
taken into custody without incident. Probes were removed at medical center. No injuries sustained to officers and
minor injuries received by subject from broken glass, but not any from the M26. Officer’s comment: Subject stated
he, "knew we were coming in to get him and all he could do was watch and "twitch." He stated he felt fear and
pain. No control of his muscles at all. Post custody interview was videotaped and covers suspect's reactions to
the application and shows probe removal.
Comment: Officer’s Comment: "Thanks for an awesome tool!" No injuries sustained to officers and the
suspect landed on some of the glass and cut his leg.

Description:
A mentally disturbed 34-yr-old, 175-lb., 5’11, male inmate became combative after a visit. He was located inside a
locked visiting booth. After all efforts to talk the inmate out of the area failed the M26 was deployed. The inmate
was standing on the visiting seat. The M26 was inserted through the pass through in the door several feet below
where the inmate was standing. The deputy used the laser sight only from 1-3 feet away. The first Air Cartridge
was fired. The top probe of the first cartridge struck the inmate in the middle chest, but the lower dart missed. A
second cartridge was fired. This second shot struck the inmate in the right mid-back and the right mid-arm. After
the first 5-second cycle the inmate stepped down off the seat and put one hand out the pass through to be
handcuffed. The inmate was slow placing his second hand through so another 5-second cycle was applied. He
was fully lucid and totally cooperative after this point. No injuries to inmate or officers and the two probes were
removed at medical. The incident was videotaped.
Comment:
Analysis: Inmate most likely propped up by cell configuration. But, compliance gained.

DETAILS
Description:
Police officers made contact with a violent 44-yr-old, 5’10, 170-lb., male intoxicated with cocaine and alcohol.
Suspect was threatening several persons with a large piece of plate glass. Suspect became combative and was
shot with M26 from 6 to 10 feet away. One probe hit below the pectoral muscle. The bottom probe hit above the
belt line. Both probes penetrated skin. The probes were 6-8 inches apart. Sparks were heard according to the
shooter. Suspect retreated back but was able to break leads from probes. He then attacked officers in a fistfight.
The officer used the M26 as a contact stun device. The officer hit subject in the lower back with the stun contact it was immobilizing him, but as soon as the officer released the unit, he started fighting again. The suspect was
physically subdued by the officer who got the contact stun on the subject for 5-seconds after being stunned 4 to 5
more times in stun gun application, finally gaining compliance. The probes fired remained embedded in suspect's
torso, after he was able to snap wires from probes. Suspect sustained minor injuries from swarm with swelling to
face and minor probe entry points injuries from the M26. Officers sustained minor injuries from swarm tactic.
Supervisor’s comment: Deploying officer should have used a second cartridge on suspect. Probes were removed
at medical. Dataport plug will be in place during all M26 use. Officer’s Comment: Contact stun was on lower back,
in the muscle near the tailbone; very effective. "When I hit him with the last contact, it took the fight out him and
we were able to cuff him." Note: the officer felt a shock to his hand as he disengaged the M26 from the contact
stun. The rubber plug was not in the dataport. This can happen only in a very specific configuration where the
one of the electrodes from the M26 is touching the target, the other is disconnected, the user is touching the
target, and the dataport plug is not in place. It generated a small static discharge from the dataport. From here on
out, dataport plug will be kept in place.
Comment:
Analysis: Suspect was able to break wires while retreating. Aggressive use of the stun gun on the
tailbone enabled officers to gain compliance.

Description:
A 200 lb., 5’10, 38-year-old, male subject was to be committed to county psych but refused to comply. Subject
barricaded himself in his apartment and threatened to assault officers with a screwdriver if they entered. Officers
provided a distraction at the front door while another officer and myself gained entry through a rear window. We
came into the front room where the subject was and identified ourselves. He turned around, saw the M26, and the
laser centered on his chest and he immediately dropped the screwdriver and complied with commands.
Comment: Officer’s comment: Subject stated that he did not know what the weapon was but he felt that it was
going to hurt because of the laser sight. He also stated that the yellow and black markings on the
end of the cartridge were rather intimidating also.

Description:
Officers responded to a fight in progress at a local fraternity house involving twenty to thirty people at
approximately 0330. Upon arrival the victims stated that numerous individuals had broken into their residence and
physically assaulted them. Two of the victims were taken to the ER for treatment of the injuries. The victims
described the suspects to be very large individuals (University football players). A search for the suspects led to
a foot pursuit by an officer that observed a large individual running through the yards in the area. The officer
chased the suspect to the front door of a residence and attempted to detain him, but the 6'4" 270-lb. 20-yr-old male
football player resisted. (Suspect was under the influence of alcohol.) Another officer joined in the melee, and
both officers struggled with the suspect ordering him to stop resisting. Due to the suspect's huge stature, he was
impossible to subdue. A 3rd officer arrived equipped with the ADVANCED TASER. The officer unholstered the
M26 and aimed the laser to the center of the suspect’s back, but could not obtain a clear shot due to the other
officers continuing to struggle with the suspect. The officer equipped with the TASER yelled, "If he is still
resisting, let him go and I will shoot him with the TASER. Move away and I will shoot him with the TASER!" The
suspect, hearing these commands, immediately yelled, "Please don't shoot me with the TASER," and
instantaneously went limp. The two officers were then able to successfully handcuff the suspect. The individual
was identified as one of the assailants, and charged with B&E with the intent to commit an assault, and assault by
mob. A search of the residence was conducted for the remaining suspects. An officer used the M26 to clear the
basement area. During the search, the officer found a second suspect hiding in a storage room. The officer
ordered the suspect from the room, as the laser was engaged center mass of the suspect. The officer explained
that if the suspect did not comply he would be shot. Officers and suspects sustained no injuries.
Comment:
Analysis: Two separate subjects for same call out caused stopped individuals with lasers only
including the large college football player under the influence of alcohol.

Description:
A 5’10, 170-lb., 39-yr-old male suspect under the influence of alcohol had assaulted his girlfriend sending her to
the hospital to be stitched up. Suspect fled the scene prior to officers arrival but returned several hours later.
Suspect attempted to hide in a nearby parked car and initially refused to exit when ordered. Numerous verbal
directions at gunpoint finally led to suspect exiting the car. Suspect was verbally abusive/assaultive and
continued his non-compliance. Suspect wore a heavy hooded sweatshirt which concealed waist area etc. (The
suspect was not known to be armed but nobody assumed that he wasn’t armed.) Suspect fairly well contained
between two parked cars. Only two officers available to handle situation: one armed with a handgun and OC
spray, (water based) the other with a M26. The suspect was OC sprayed twice with no apparent effect. The laser
sight was also directed at the suspect’s chest and he was verbally advised of the pending TASER shot. This had
no impact although he did look down at the laser several times. The suspect then turned slightly away from the
officers and dropped his right hand below his shoulder level at which time the TASER shot him from 7-11 feet
away. The reaction was immediate as he dropped to his hands and knees as the 5-second cycle was employed.
The probes penetrated skin in the suspect’s upper right back and mid-right back. The suspect was then cuffed
without further difficulty and transported to the local hospital for treatment (SOP for both the TASER shot and OC
spray). The victim/girlfriend and two uninvolved citizens witnessed the incident. All were supportive of the PD
action. This was our first use of the M26 and the probes were left at the hospital with the treating doctor for
training of his staff. Both probes had penetrated the heavy sweatshirt and lodged in the suspect’s skin.
Treatment consisted of swabbing the area with a disinfectant only.
Comment: Officer’s comment: The suspect was unaware that the TASER had shot him. He thought he had
voluntarily dropped to his hands and knees as directed by the officers. He did not believe he had
been TASERed until the doctor removed the two embedded probes at the hospital but did complain
that "you stuck something in my back." Officers and suspect sustained no injuries.

Description:
EMS called to "Man Down." When EMS arrived, the 37-yr-old, 5’7, 180-lb. male was bleeding profusely from a
2-inch gash in his forearm where he had cut himself deeply. Suspect was under the influence of alcohol,
emotionally disturbed and violent. The suspect kept stating that he wanted to die. He held a straight razor to his
own throat. EMS called for a TASER Officer. Officer arrived shortly and tried to talk to suspect. Suspect would
not talk to him. Officer moved close enough to deploy M26. Suspect stated, "Are you going to shoot me with
that?" Officer responded "Yep," and in fact did. After 5-second current suspect, the was still very verbal but not
aggressive. The M26 current caused immediate incapacitation. The man fell backwards to the ground, stiffened
up and made the razor drop from his hand and far enough away from him that officer could secure it before
handcuffing suspect. Top probe penetrated the skin exactly where laser was pointed. The M26 was fired from
10-15 feet away and the probes hit the suspect mid chest and lower right thigh. Bottom probe went two feet below
top probe and did not penetrate the skin. It did however embed itself in pant leg fold. Officers’ supervisor, who
was on scene, was very impressed. Officers sustained no injuries. Suspect sustained cuts from his razor prior to
police arrival and was transported to hospital.
Comment: Suspect's Comment: "What the hell did you shoot me with?" Subject stated he was depressed and
on numerous medications.

Upon responding to a fight in the felony inmate's recreation yard, a sergeant drew and displayed the ADVANCED
TASER M26. Both inmates involved were bleeding from their facial area. Both inmates stopped initially when the
M26 was drawn, but the smaller 25-yr-old, 5’8, 175-lb. inmate decided to advance again who was pumped up with
adrenaline. The sergeant placed the laser sight on inmate’s chest and held the inmate with his left hand in a
jugular notch restraint as other deputies put on protective gloves. Both participants were removed from the area
and the yard was cleared without further incident or injuries. No injuries were sustained to officers. Inmates had
minor injuries from fighting.
Comment: Officer’s comment’s: "Word is starting to get around the jail about the TASER. The pod usually
clears upon entry to an incident."

Dispatch advised police of a man wandering in and out of traffic who was suspected to be intoxicated. The man
had blood about his forehead. An officer found the man next to a school and approached him. The officer noted a
"wild eyed look" consistent with the use of illegal drugs. The man went over a fence. Police and fire personnel on
scene pursued. The male stopped and crouched next to a tree in an unlit field. The officer announced himself and
that he wanted to help the man. The man began to run away, and another officer chased the man. The man fell
tripped and fell to the ground. The officer deployed the M26 on the man before he could get up striking him in the
bare back. The suspect did not react to the TASER right away. It appeared that his reaction time was 2-3 seconds
at which time he became angry and yelled at the officer. The man refused verbal commands. The officer applied a
second 5-second cycle and the suspect became agitated and began cursing and yelling at the officer. At this
point, the second officer on scene was able to place handcuffs on the suspect and turn him on his stomach. In
handcuffs the man continued to curse and yell and he was placed in leg restraints and kept on the ground until
paramedics arrived. The officers noted that the man’s eyes were fully dilated even in a flashlight beam. The
suspect continued to yell and make no sense. The suspect’s mouth had white foam around his lips. There were
also two small TASER probe puncture wounds and a few small cuts. Suspect was placed into protective custody
and mental health hold. No age, weight, height provided.

A call was dispatched to patrol of a man with a gun. Officers arrived and found that the suspect did not have a
gun. Instead, he had a knife to his throat. Seattle SWAT heard the call and responded. A crisis intervention
officer arrived and attempted to communicate with the 30-yr-old, 5’10, 170-lb. delusional and suicidal male. The
suspect would not listen. The man was hearing imaginary voices and talking to imaginary people. The M26
officer, with lethal cover, closed to a distance of 12 feet. At that time the suspect appeared as if he was going to
run. The TASER officer deployed the M26 from 11-15 feet. Both darts hit the man in the mid-right back and the
right calf. The suspect immediately went down. Arresting officers started to handcuff the suspect prior to the five
seconds elapsing (the M26 was still activated). There were no injuries to the suspect or responding officers.
Probes were removed on scene.
Comment: Officer’s comment: The suspect stated, "What the hell was that?"

Description:
A local police force requested our department for the use of the ADVANCED TASER M26. Our member attended
the apartment of a violent and drunk suspect emotionally disturbed about his marital breakup. The 244-lb., 6’1,
42-yr-old, male suspect was sitting on his couch holding a 10" kitchen knife up to his throat and was threatening
to kill himself. Also, called to the scene was a trained negotiator. When negotiations failed, our member was
allowed to use the M26. A verbal warning was given to the suspect. The suspect in turn said "do it" and put his
knife to his throat. The M26 was fired striking the suspect in the chest and the upper leg from 7-11 feet away. The
probes hit the mid upper chest and mid-beltline. The resulting effects: Suspect moaned, froze, dropped his knife
and fell off the couch and landed face down on the floor. While the back up team was moving in for handcuffing.
The suspect's arm twitched and being that the knife was still under the suspect, the M26 was activated for two
more seconds. The suspect was then easily handcuffed. One probe penetrated skin and was later removed at
medical. No police members were hurt and the suspect is alive and well.
Comment: Officer's comments: "In conclusion, the M26 is a very effective tool and its use in this deadly force
situation was valuable."
Analysis: Tremendous hit by M26 to stop man with a knife at his throat who was anticipating the
M26 shot.

was deployed on subject from 7-11 feet away. The probes hit the subject on his mid-chest and right hip. Both
probes penetrated the subject's skin and he did not comply until after the fourth burst. After four 5-seconds M26
bursts he finally said he would comply. Probes were removed at medical. No injuries were sustained to officers or
suspect.

Comment: Officer’s comments: After I asked the members of the shift if they had any doubts about the M-26
and they all agreed if it had not been for the M-26 we might have had to use deadly force against the
subject. I asked if they believed in the M-26 and they all agreed it worked to perfection. I keep
thinking about what would have happened if I would have deployed my K-9 partner on him under
the house and the end results would not have been nice for the subject. I really feel blessed to have
the etaser. I spoke to the supervisor at the lockup and he told me the next day he was able to speak
to the subject. The supervisor stated the subject, who's name is Alton Plowden, told him when the
probes hit him it stung him so he was trying to pull them out, but he couldn't move nothing. Alton
stated after the shocking stopped he was dazed, but could hear me screaming at him, but still
couldn't move. Alton stated when I grabbed his leg he thought I was going to shock him again so
he pulled his leg and he felt the shock again then when he woke up he was in a jail cell. If you
remember I reported we brought Alton to the hospital and after he was treated he was medicated and
brought to lockup. Alton woke up the next day just before lunch. Thanks E-Taser
Analysis: Excellent use in a situation calling for a dynamic approach while subjec was with weapons
in a prone position under a house.

At approximately 0408 hours, officers were dispatched on a report of a violent, drunk, 30-yr-old, 5’9, 165-lb., male
threatening suicide with a piece of glass. Officers made contact with the subject, who had slashed his own wrists
with a broken piece of glass and presented blood borne pathogens as a risk to officers. Officers gave verbal
commands to the subject, but he ignored the commands and made a rush at Sgt. Nuttal. Sgt. Nuttal fired his
ADVANCED TASER M26 from a distance of about 3 feet, striking the subject with both probes in the upper right
and mid-right side of his torso and penetrating skin. The subject was immediately incapacitated and dropped to
the ground. After the 5-second cycle, the subject was ordered to stay on the ground for handcuffing. The subject
replied that he would do anything, but requested that we not "electrocute" him again. The subject was taken into
custody for a mental evaluation without further incident. Local paramedics transported the subject to an area
hospital, as is policy during our T&E phase, for a medical clearance.

Description:
At 1330 hours, officers were dispatched to the El Dorado Hotel/Casino on a report of a 43-yr-old male suspect
armed with a knife, threatening suicide. Officers made contact with the suspect, who made verbal threats to kill
himself if officers approached him. Officers talked to the suspect from outside the hotel room, at a distance of
about 30 feet, for more than two hours. The suspect told the officers he would kill himself if they stepped into the
room. Attending sergeant turned on his ADVANCED TASER M26 to prepare for deployment if needed. The
suspect saw the laser from the M26 and retreated further into the room, hiding behind a large indoor spa tub.
Officers entered the room and found the suspect laying face down on the floor with the knife pressed against his
chest. The suspect attempted to force himself onto the knife, but he flinched in pain when the weight of his body
forced the knife into his skin. An officer kept negotiations open with the suspect as the sergeant closer to the
suspect. The suspect thought people outside the windows of the room were watching him. Officer distracted the
suspect as he opened the curtains to show the suspect that he was not being watched. As officer opened the
curtains, sergeant moved to within 7 feet of the suspect and fired the M26 from 3-7 feet away, striking the suspect
in upper mid-right back and right buttocks with the two probes. The probes only penetrated clothing. The
suspect was immediately incapacitated, dropping the knife and quivering from the electrical current. Officers
moved on the suspect, taking him into custody without further incident. Once the suspect was in custody,
officers discovered a large sum of money in the room that was stolen in a recent robbery. Neither dart penetrated
the suspect's skin, but he was still transported to a local hospital for evaluation, as is our policy during the T&E
phase of our program. The suspect was held for mental evaluation, then later booked for the robbery. Officers and
suspect sustained no injuries.
Comment: Subject’s comment: "What was that?...That hurt like hell."
Analysis: Good use of distraction tactic against a suicidal man with a knife.

Description:
SWAT officers responded to a possible suicidal 6’2, 200-lb., 47-yr-old, male suspect who was barricaded in his
residence. The suspect's daughter stated that she did not know of any firearms in the residence and stated that
she believed that the suspect was armed with a claw hammer. Officers on scene had prior contact with the suspect
and knew that he had been treated for mental illness in the past. Officers knocked on the door and announced
themselves and advised that they had a warrant for his arrest. Officers breached the front door in an attempt to
introduce a throw phone to establish communications. The suspect made an aggressive move towards officers
and was swinging the hammer in an attempt to strike the officers. The suspect was struck in the upper chest with a
beanbag round which briefly knocked him back. The suspect again advanced towards officers in an aggressive
manner and the suspect struck the ballistic shield twice with his claw hammer, also striking the M26 TASER. The
officers did notice that M26 was damaged and that the Air Cartridge was now loosely attached to the M26. The
M26 was deployed from 3-7 feet away at that time, knocking the suspect back into the residence approximately
8-10 feet. One probe penetrated in the suspect’s hand and the other in suspect’s clothing located in the center
torso. After approximately two seconds, the suspect pulled at wires, which pulled the Air Cartridge from the
TASER where he had previously damaged it. Officers then utilized physical force to subdue the suspect and take
him into custody. The suspect damaged the M26 with his hammer and the suspect was advancing toward officers
and it knocked him back and then he pulled on the Air Cartridge out. He screamed. He got two seconds. Officers
sustained minor injuries from the hammer strikes. The suspect sustained no injuries. Probes were removed at
medical.
SWAT Officers had taken an emotionally disturbed individual into custody and had previously deployed an air
cartridge. The subject was being transported by EMS personnel to have him evaluated by Mental Health Officials.
To ensure that the subject remained compliant, officers performed a spark demonstration in front of the suspect.
Officers had no further problems from the suspect.
NOTE: SWAT Officers had taken above emotionally disturbed individual into custody and had previously
deployed an air cartridge. The subject was being transported by EMS personnel for evaluation by Mental Health
Officials. To ensure that the subject remained compliant, officers performed a spark demonstration in front of the
suspect. Officers had no further problems from the suspect. comment: The suspect stated that he was not going
to try anything after the spark demonstration.
Comment: Officer’s comment: "It really did help us. It gave us a tactical advantage of knocking him back into
the room where we were able to get more 9 officers had it not knocked him back… otherwise would
only have had two or three officers there in the doorway. We wouldn’t have fired a 2nd shot as we
immediately resorted to the swarm tactic." Officers weren’t aware the M26 had been damaged. AC
now pulls out easily and will be replaced.
Analysis: A possible success despite the damaged M26 -- see officer's comment. M26 Unit was
damage by suspect by claw hammer and yet the unit was still effective according to
officer's comments.

Description:
During an incident, a suicidal subject kept yelling and beating on her padded cell door. Deputies respond in an
attempt to calm her and the Shift Sergeant displayed the M26 in an effort to gain compliance. The subject stood
and stated "Come on and use it. I'm pregnant." Another Deputy then sprayed the subject with OC, somewhat
incapacitating the subject and allowing the Deputies to exit without escalating the incident. However, the OC
didn't last but a couple of seconds as she continued to beat on the door after the Deputies left.
Comment: After seeing it stated: "Come on and use it. I'm pregnant."
Analysis: Officer chose not to deploy the M26 against a pregnant suspect. Not specifically a failure
but perhaps a wise choice in that the office made a conscience decision to not use the
M26 to keep the woman from failing to the ground per our training.

Description:
The inmate was mentally disturbed. While in his cell he loosened his waist chain and was swinging it like a
weapon. He also spread urine and feces on the floor and walls and was threatening suicide as well as the staff.
Due to previous successful deployments with the M26 the deputies did not suit up in Emergency Response gear.
The inmate was hit with the M26 and driven back, but after the5 seconds he quickly recovered and refused to
cooperate. The M26 was reactivated an additional five times. Each time the inmate was impacted but after each
use he refused to cooperate with staff. Finally, the staff entered and wrestled the inmate to the ground and
secured him. The inmate suffered minor injuries during the altercation with the staff. A number of deputies
received minor injuries securing the inmate. The M26 worked, but the staff's expectation was that being shocked
by theTASER would lead the inmate to submit to handcuffing without force. The inmate was incapacitated each
time the M26 was activated, but no effort was made to handcuff him during these activations.
Comment:
Analysis: This incident was discussed thoroughly during a M26 Int'l Instructors Conference. This is
a condition termed as "M26 dependent," where officer's have had such success w/
compliance of the ADVANCED TASER, that the officers did not failure normal SOP and
didn't go hands on when the inmate went down.

Description:
Drunk threatened to fight with officers and "kick ass" after being refused entry at a local bar. Officers backed off
and requested a supervisor with the Advanced Taser After display and refusal to comply with several commands,
Advanced Taser was applied from a distance of approximately 12 feet. Top dart struck suspect in the mid
abdomen, but the second dart hung up in suspect's shirt tail. The deployment had no apparent effect on the
suspect, despite two 5-second applications. OC was then applied to the suspect's eyes, causing him to close his
eyes but remain combative. Front snap kick to groin was applied, causing suspect to fall to the ground. Suspect
continued to fight with officers during handcuffing, and Taser was applied in "stun gun" fashion twice to
suspect's upper back, with no effect. Officers used control holds and physical force to handcuff and hobble
suspect.
Comment: Suspect stated he never felt any electricity, and did not realize he had been tased. He stated the OC
burned his eyes, and the front kick to the groin dropped him, but felt no ill effects from the taser
application. He did not realize that the taser was "stun gun" applied to his back twice during
handcuffing.
Analysis: Clothing penetration failure -- the bottom dart hung in the shirt and failed to make contact
to the subject.

Description:
During the intake process a detainee, he refused to remove a silver wedding ring to be place with his property.
The Deputy began to explain the property inventory process and the subject became irate and refused, stating
"You come and get it!" The subject clenched his other fist as a deputy attempted to take the ring. Another
deputy saw the fist and took the subject to the ground and restraned him as a deputy attempted to take the ring.
The subject grabbed one of the deputy's fingers. A deputy initiated a 2-3 second contact stun to his upper back
for him to release his finger. The subject yelled, but refused to let go. I warned again, then gave a 5 second charge
in the same area. The subject then began cursing and yelling "Kill me now" and stating he wanted to die. I
warned again, and moved the Taser to his kidney area and gave two consecutive 5 second hits. After the end of
the second hit, the subject released the deputy's finger and opened his hand for his ring to be removed as he
continually stated "OK..OK..OK." With each touch stun device, I could hear the deputy who was attmepting to ge
the ring muttering something next to me. After the incident, he told me he was somehow receiving a slight
secondary charge from the Taser. He said (it was minor, kind of like holding onto a spark plug. I asked another
deputy present if he felt anything since the contact area was only 2 inches from his knee - he did not. We
attributed it to the fact the subject was holding deputy's finger and the charge came through the ring somehow.
Comment: I later interviewed and took pictures of the subject. He continuously apoligized and was very
compliant and respectful. I asked him if he would ever want to be tased again to which he stated
"No way man. I'll do anything you want."

Description:
A combative subject brought in by PD that began to fight and attempted to spit on our Detention Deputies. Once
the subject was taken to the ground, he continued to resist. The Shift Sergeant removed the air cartridge and
initiated a contact stun on the subject's upper back. The subject stated "I give up, I give up", but continued to
resist after the 5-second cycle ended. Another 5-second cycle was given and the subject calmed enough to be
searched and placed in the holding cell. About 2 hours later, the Deputies took pictures of the injuries. As they
attempted to place him back in the cell, he became combative again and was taken to the floor. As he was kicking
the Deputy's legs, the Shift Corporal sprayed OC in the subject's facial area, allowing the Deputies to roll him onto
his stomach, but he continued to resist. The Shift Sergeant responded and gave two more 5-second contact stuns
to the subject's back. This allowed the Deputies to place him into the cell without receiving any
injuries.
Comment:
Analysis: Touch stun needs to be applied to pressure points per training.

Description:
The local police notified us prior to arrival that one of their officers needed assistance with a combative subject he
was attempting to transport to our jail. Upon arrival, the subject was extremely combative and was advised not to
resist the deputies. The subject refused to comply and yelled that he would kick all our asses when the handcuffs
come off. Upon removal of the cuffs, he continued to be combative. The Shift Sergeant pulled his M26 and
advised the subject not to resist or he would Tase him. The subject's demeanor immediately changed and he
began to comply.
Comment: Upon seeing the Taser, the subject actually began to physically cry and begged the Sergeant not to
shoot him with the Taser. During the begging and sobbing, he pleaded to the Sergeant by asking
"Why man, what did I ever do to you?"

Description:
Suspect wanted on parole violation for armed robbery. Initially he fled from officers by jumping from a 2nd story
balcony and then hid in a nearby garage. An officer tracked him to that location and confronted him at gunpoint.
The suspect failed to comply with verbal commands. Instead he started toward the officer to pass him. The officer
holstered and drew his baton seeing his hands were free. A parole officer arrived and the suspect was cuffed in
the front initially. Then as the two officers attempted to recuff in the rear the suspect got a hand free and tried to
fight and run. The two officers managed to take him down to the floor but were struggling to recuff the loose
hand. I arrived and turned on the M26 laser and advised the suspect to stop fighting or he would be shocked. He
saw the laser pointed at his chest and immediately complied.
Comment:
Analysis: Minor injuries were not related to the M26 but were due to scuffle prior to laser useage.

An intoxicated detainee in our Detention Center refused to remove an earring during his intake process. The
intake Deputy attempted to remove it and a physical altercation ensued. I responded and observed the subject on
the ground with Deputies attempting to retrieve his right arm which the subject had placed underneath him. I drew
my M26 and initiated a 2-3 second contact stun to the subject's upper back area. The subject cursed and
continued to refuse to cooperate. I then gave the subject a full 5 second charge and the subject stated "OK, OK, I
give up!" The subject gave his arm to the Deputy and his earring was removed. The subject was placed in the
holding cell without further incident.
Comment: I interviewed the subject the following day and took pictures of his injuries. He stated he would
never do that again if he ever came back to our jail.

Description:
While responding to a fight in progress in one of the felony segregation units in our jail, my deputies and I entered
the unit to find 2 inmates (one consistently violent and the other a former escapee of our facility) engaged in a
physical altercation. As we entered the unit, one of them began to run at the other and was in the process of
swinging at him when I shot him with the M26. He immediately dropped and his forward momentum slid him
across the floor and into the wall. As I let the M26 continue it's 5-second cycle, my other Deputies immediately
subdued the other inmate and placed him in his cell. One deputy and I cuffed our Tased inmate and we escorted
him to the nurse's station. I easily removed the darts and photographed his wounds. They were so small, I had
Deputies point to the entry holes. The Taser was great and my deputies were great. I don't think we could have
pulled it off better if we practiced for weeks!
Comment: On the scene right after I shot him, I waited to see if he needed another application before we cuffed
him so I asked if he wanted anymore. He just
sat there with his mouth open and shook his head no. He then looked up me and said "What was
that?" I told him it was the Taser and asked if he
would fight anymore. With his mouth still open, he slowly shook his head and said "No Sir, Mr.
XXXXXX." He told me later "You can't do nothing.
Don't hit nobody while you got the gun on them, 'cause they can't do
nothing. You can't move."

While responding to a large physical altercation in a day area of one of our felony housing units involving 15-20
inmates, I turned on the laser sighting system to prepare for a possible use for the M26. During the lockdown
process, this individual became verbally non-compliant as we were breaking up the incident. I placed the M26
laser on his chest to gain compliance. The individual jumped back, turned his head, and placed his hands up in
front of him in a defensive manner. He then complied with our orders and went to his cell.

Description:
On Monday, 04-17-00, at approximately 10:20 p.m., Officers were dispatched to assist other officers in regards to a
mental call. Upon arrival, I heard the front door to the residence slam shut and the porch light turn off. Officer
knocked on the door and a male subject told him to go away. I then heard what sounded like a fight inside the
residence. We made entry into the residence and a male subject ran into the southwest bedroom and held the door
shut. The subject's wife advised us that he was armed with a pocket knife. We were unable to get the bedroom
door opened due to the fact that the male subject was holding the door shut. At this time I went outside the
residence to a window looking into the southwest bedroom along with sergeant. The sergeant instructed me to
break out the bedroom window so that he could discharge a Taser at the subject. I broke out the window and the
sergeant discharged the M26 which missed the subject. At this time the subject raised his hands into the air
showing that he was unarmed and stated "I give up." He was taken into custody by other officers on the scene.
Comment: I give up.
Analysis: Although the probes missed entirely since the M26 was fired through a broken window, the
effect was sucessful as the subject completely gave himself up.

The suspect ran from an occupied stolen vehicle and hid from officers in an abandoned vehicle. After being
located by a K-9, the suspect ignored several verbal commands to exit the vehicle. The suspect was prone out on
his stomach with the lower back seat on top of him to conceal his location. His upper back was slightly exposed.
After several attempts to gain compliance, the officer deployed one cartridge to the suspect's upper back. After
one cycle, the suspect was compliant and exited his hiding spot on his own. He did not sustain any injuries.
Comment: The suspect indicated that the M26 had caused him a great deal of pain
and that he did not want to be subjected to another dose. He also insisted that he had been shot in
the head by the probes.

Description:
Officers (recently certified instructor on taser) were responding to a domestic disturbance in an apt. complex.
When they arrived, they found a distraught male which weighed in excess of 300 pounds screaming loudly and
attempting to dive out a second story window with an electric cord wrapped around his neck. The other end of the
cord was tied to a steam radiator heat pipe in the apartment. The disturbed man's wife was holding onto his legs,
trying to stop him from going out the window head first. Officer and a LT went into the apartment and tried to pull
the man back inside, but were not able to do this because he kept kicking. The Fire Department arrived with
extension ladders. An officer went up one ladder to try to help push the man back up as we were pulling on his
feet. A firefighter went up another ladder with wire cutters and cut the extension cord. The man began to fight
with one of the officers, and grabbed ahold of the ladder, trying to push it over. Firefighter started to strike the
mans hands with the wire cutters to get him to release the ladder, but this was not working. M26 officer took the
air cartridge off of the M26 and allowed two full 5-second cycles into the man's back. The man went slack and quit
kicking, and released the ladder. We were able to shove him back inside and handcuff the man. He was taken to
the emergency room, evaluated and admitted to the mental health hospital.
Comment: At the start of the incident, he was verbally abusive and hostile towards us. He was very talkative
to Officer Arter who was trying to negotiate with him. After the use of the M26 he was incoherent,
silent and seemed withdrawn for several minutes.

Description:
Officers responded on report of an intoxicated male that was "out of control" and acting "strangely." Officers met
with the subject's spouse and were then directed to the basement of the home. Officers could hear the subject
moaning and yelling. Officers found the subject kneeling in the center of a room in the basement. When he saw
officers he told them he would kill them if they came closer. The subject called them by various names and didn't
seem to realize at first that they were officers, but
continued to threaten to kill them if they came closer. Verbal persuasion was not effective with the subject. O.C
was not an option in the close and confined setting because of vapor rate. The subject did not have a shirt on and
his muscular build was apparent. Officers or the subject would probably have gotten hurt if physical control were
attempted. A third officer arrived with a TASER. Officers continued verbal persuasion, but it was ineffective and
at one point the subject got up and tried to lunge at one of the officers. The TASER was deployed with the darts
striking the subject in the back of the arm and back. The subject fell to the ground and officers were able to
handcuff him without incident. The subject rolled on his stomach, put his hands behind his back, and told officers
he would do what they wanted. After handcuffing; he again became combative and had to be carried from the
basement and later restrained at the hospital. He had to be medically cleared because of his level of intoxication.

Description:
The local livestock auction barn had a steer get loose from them. We have an agreement with the barn that
runaway animals are to be shot to reduce the risk of the animals causing motor vehicle crashes that the livestock
barn would be liable for. The steer ran into a housing area and was in between houses, making the use of firearms
risky. In order to prevent the possibility of a shot damaging a house, the on duty Sergeant asked a patrolman to
try to use the M26 to put the steer on the ground so a shot could be taken, making the ground the backstop. The
M26 did put the animal on the ground. As the sergeant moved in to dispatch the steer, the 5- second cycle had
ended. The steer started to get up. Patrolman attempted to apply another 5-second cycle, but the steer had rolled
around on the gound and the wires were broken. The steer got to his feet and ran between houses again before
sergeant could use his pistol. Although this situation did not end up with the dispatching or capture of the
animal, the officers involved told me that they felt the plan they had come up with was a good one. The officers
informed me that if the M26 could take a steer off it's feet, it would surely work on almost any human.
Comment:
Analysis: This incapacitation was on steer (not a human).

Suicidal subject armed with folding knife. Agressively approached deputies and then pulled knife. M26 fired, with
one probe striking a plastic pen in his pocket. He received no charge and pulled the other probe out himself. He
surrendered after that and then became resistant while handcuffs were being applied. The M26 was applied in
contact mode and the suspect complied although he was not taken down.
Comment: Ow! He stung me!
Analysis: The actual shot hit a plastic non-conductive pen but the stun gun was enough to impair the
subject for compliance.

Drug intoxicated EDP creating a disturbance - partially clothed in sub-freezing weather - apparently worshiping the
sun god. Non-compliant with deputies and violently self-abusive, agressively moving around the yard of an
uninvolved citizens yard. It was apparent that without the Taser both deputies and the subject would have been
injured. Taser cycled three times in order to get the suspect secured. After first cycle, he immediately got to his
feet and pulled the dart out, although he kept it in his hand for the subsequent two cycles.

Description:
Multiple gang members were involved in a shots fired disturbance, and witnesses believed the armed suspect ran
into a nearby apartment. Officers surrounded the house, and saw six gang members in the front room of the
apartment. Telephone contact was made, but suspects refused to come out of the house. Ram was used to open
the front door, but suspect kicked it shut again. Ram was used a second time to open the door, and three
cooperative persons were taken into custody as they exited the apartment. The suspect who kicked the door
refused to show his hands, and told officers to "F*** off!" M26 was deployed from less than 7 feet, and had an
immediate effect. Suspect fell to the ground, and I stopped the charge. Suspect still had his hands under his body
at his waistband, and refused multiple commands to place his hands behind his back. Charge re-applied for less
than one second, as suspect immediately placed his hands behind his back for cuffing. Once cuffed, I dropped the
cartridge, reloaded, and swept the other suspects with laser sight. No further resistance was offered by the group.
Comment: "It felt like 1,000 BB's hitting me in the stomach over and over again. That shit hurts! My legs felt
weak...it just knocks you down. There was nothing I could do."
EMS asked "how much electricity" was used. When I replied "50,000 volts," the suspect replied,
"50,000 volts! What were you trying to do, kill me?"
Analysis: Other subjects at scene were kept at bay simply by the laser sight.

Drunken subject thought he was at his residence, and could not understand why the couple who answered the
door would not let him in. He thought the woman was his mother, and that she had taken up with a man from the
local bar. He was angry and challenged the man to fight, then threatened him with a folding knife. Officers
responded, and the suspect refused to show his hands or get down on the ground. M26 was deployed from
approximately 10 feet, with the first dart striking the suspect in the left side, under the armpit. The second dart
hung up in the suspects t-shirt, just below his waistband. Application immobilized suspect, allowing me to deliver
a front kick to his left hip. Suspect dropped to one knee, and an additional front kick to the left hip took him to the
ground. As he laid on the ground with his hands underneath them, he refused to place them behind his back for
cuffing. Re-application of the charge resulted in immediate compliance; suspect placed his hands in the small of
his back, and offered no further resistance.
Comment: "It felt like I was getting punched over and over again in my side. It hurt, but not enough to knock
me down. I'm a US Marine; it's gonna' take more than that to stop me." "I had at least a 12 pack of
beer." "That thing pissed me off, but it didn't put me down until you kicked me."

Description:
Suspect was involved in a verbal disturbance with his father, challenging the father to fight in the street. Officers
were able to handcuff the subject, but he then became combative, and attempted to kick the officers. The on-scene
sergeant requested I respond with the M26 to assist with the application of leg irons. I advised the suspect that
leg irons would be applied, and that if he resisted, the M26 would be applied. I then performed a spark demo and
asked for the suspect's compliance. He refused to extend his legs for the leg irons, and refused all commands to
comply. M26 was applied as a "stun gun" to the left rear trapezius muscle for 1-2 seconds with little effect. I then
recalled the training that suggested application on pressure points. M26 was re-applied as a "stun gun" to the left
collarbone for 1-2 seconds, with immediate effect. The suspect extended his legs for the leg irons, and did not
move while they were applied. He provided no further resistance at scene, and was loaded into the transport
wagon with no further incident.
Comment: Prior to the supervisor's arrival, officers advised suspect about the taser. He stated he’d been hit
with a Taser before (Tasertron) and it didn’t affect him. Once the suspect was safely seated in the
patrol wagon behind the locked door, he stated "That felt good. Yee haw!"
Analysis: Key of success was moving the touch stun to a pressure point where success was made
possible.

A 21-yr-old female called 911 to report that her father assaulted her mother. The attack took place over a two hour
time period. During the attack the mother was punched, kicked and hit with a chair, she was drug around the
house by her hair, and at one point the father placed a sharp kitchen knife to the throat of the mother and
threatend her life. The attack took place in front of the 11 and 12 yr-old nieces of both the victim and suspect. The
mother and both nieces were able to escape to a friends house down the street, where I contated them. During the
interview of the victim I could very clearly see several superficial cuts to her throat as well as a small cut on her
forehead and right ear. The victim explained that her husband is a resident of Mexico and in the U.S. illegally. She
added that he is very violent and told her that if the Police were called, he would kill her. She also informed us that
he was intoxicated and possibly still in possession of the knife. The victim and daughter gave us a key to enter
the house without allearting the suspect. Myself and a second Officer entered through the front door and
confronted the suspect who was standing in the living room. As the suspect noticed it was the Police, he
advanced towards us, no weapon was seen at the time. I did deploy the Taser and placed the Laser on the center
of the suspects chest. The suspect noticed the Laser aimed on his chest, he immedately put his hands in the air
and began to back up. The suspect was taken into custody without incident. When the suspect noticed
the Laser on his chest he began to say something in Spanish, however; I was unable to translate it.

Officers resoponded to a local nightclub in reference to shots fired. Upon arrival, officers encountered several
suspects in the parking lot. As officers attempted to restore order and take several suspects into custody,
the crowd turned on the officers and became aggresive towards them. Several officers were punched, kicked and
thrown to the ground. Sergeant obsereved a crowd surrounding an individual who was on the ground. Several
suspects in the crowd were assaulting the victim. Sergeant ordered the crowd to disperse and cease their assult,
with no response. Sergeant deployed his M26 Taser, striking 2 seperate suspects each with 1 dart. The suspects
who were struck were touching one another, thus completing the circuit and causing both suspects to become
incapacitated and fall to the ground. The crowd obsereved this action and immediately dispersed, allowing
officers to regain control.
Comment:
Analysis: Unusual hit as the probes hit two different people but they were connected by hands and
thus the circuit of energy was completed and the M26 successful.

Description:
The mother of the suspect called police to report that her son was at her residence, naked, threatening to harm his
family, and refusing to take his medication. The subject has a history of mental illness. A few weeks earlier,
officers struggled with the subject and took 6 officers to take him into custody. One officer spoke to the subject
while i stood near the subject (approx 10 ft). Another officer was behind me with a loaded beanbag round
shotgun. The subject was uncooperative and refused to comply with officers once we informed him that we were
going to take him to mental health facility.
Comment: When one officer placed his hand on the subject, he told us to lay off him. I then activated my laser
on the M26 taser and aimed it at the subject's upper chest/rt arm area. He immediately told me to
turn it off and he attempted to move to get the red laser off him. I explained the M26 to the subject,
thought about it, and then complied.

Description:
Suspect refused to comply with officer's commands and advanced towards a M26 armed officer. Officer fired Taser
and suspect started to convulse with the cycle of the Taser. After 1 - 2 seconds, suspect then turned and ran
from officers and darts detached. Second Taser was fired at suspect's back, but missed as subject spun. Subject
was later caught and did not want to be shot with the Taser again. The subject was shot through a wet T-shirt
Comment: "Ouch." The suspect was about 12 feet away. One imapct was at nipple level and the other at his
navel. The batteries were good and the pulse rate was as expected. I was the officer and I also
taught the M26 to this dept. and am familiar with its operation. I'm guessing at this, but it is possible
the suspect broke the darts loose while he was convulsing; his hand may have involuntarily struck
one, although they were loose due to the distance.
Analysis: See comments. Possibly low muscle mass area or probe becoming loose?

Description:
Officers responded to incident where a naked subject was causing a disturbance at the hotel. Officers and
supervisor attempted to gain compliance from subject through verbal commands. Subject barricaded himself in a
bathroom with little to no room for officers to enter and had knives in a very close proximity. Subject was shown a
spark demo of which he failed to comply. Due to the chance of injury M26 to officers and the proximity of weapons
the M26 was deployed. Subject was knocked backward and visually it was obvious that the taser was effecting
him but he had no place to fall to the ground. After 5-second cycle was completed the subject quickly recovered
and sweeped the darts from his chest with his hand. The subject complied without having to deploy a second
cartridge.
Comment: Suspect stated at the hospital that the taser had no effect and that he complied because he did not
like being tased. He had been tased on a prior incident where a Tasertron taser was used on him
(approximately 6 months ago).

Description:
Suspect reportedly involved in a drunken disturbance. On arrival, officers found suspect detained by security
guards, cuffed in front. Officers determine that subject is drunk in public, and placed suspect under arrest for
Public Intoxication. While officers put on latex gloves, suspect states, "Oh, no, you're not going to do this," and
immediately jumps up. While officers attempt to control him, he attempts to arm himself with an officer's flashlight.
Officers wrestle the flashlight away, but he bites two in the process. Officer responded with M26, and officers
began to stand on the suspects arms and legs to restrain him. Spark demo done, and suspect immediately stops
yelling, and submits to rear handcuffing, leg irons, and is walked to the wagon without further incident, and taken
to the hospital for treatment for PCP intoxication. At the hospital, with no M26 at scene, suspect again became
combative, requiring 4-point restraints and a gurney. On my arrival, suspect again became extremely compliant,
submitted to a blood draw, and posed no further problem.

Drunk subject confronted officers at the scene of a disturbance at the local nightclub. Officers were able to use
good control holds to gain control of the suspect and handcuff him. He was placed in the rear of a patrol vehicle,
and immediately attempted to kick out the windows. He was removed from the vehicle, and placed in a double arm
lock by two officers. They maintained control of him until the patrol wagon arrived. While trying to load him in
the wagon, officers had to restrain him to prevent him from banging his head against the wagon door. After being
placed in the wagon, suspect refused to move his feet inside. I performed a spark demo, and repeated the
instruction to move his feet into the wagon. Suspect complied.

Description:
Officers responding to a possible burglary in progress found a warm vehicle next to a cut chain link fence. K-9
alerted officers to a small warehouse with an open window, just large enough for a suspect to crawl through.
Inside, officers could see a small finished office, with open rafters above the ceiling. K-9 continued to alert
insistently on the structure, and after a few minutes, the handler observed the suspect hiding in the rafters. K-9
announcement was made, but instead of inserting K-9 and handler into the unsearched warehouse via the small
window, officers determined the suspect was within 21' of the open window. Verbal commands and a spark demo
were done from the window, and the suspect complied with officers orders to show hands and crawl out the
window. Laser sight allowed continuous targeting of suspect as he approached, crawled out the window, and was
taken into custody. No injuries to suspect or officers, and more importantly, no officer jeopardy while inserting
through the window.

Officers responded to a DV where the suspect had stabbed himself in the arm. The wound was bleeding and the
suspect was very intoxicated. He was refusing to comply with officers demands that he stand and turn around. I
felt that we may have to go "hands on" with the suspect and there was an obvious danger of all three of us being
exposed to fresh blood from his wound. I removed the cartrige and activated the M26. I told the suspect that he
was going to be subject to this and it wasn't going to feel good. We again told the suspect to turn and put his
hands behind his back and he complied.

Description:
Subject was uncooperative at time of booking and causing a major disturbance in the jail facility. Officer entered
cell and told the subject if he stood up he would be shot with the M26. Subject became verbally abusive and
stood up. M26 was fired at him. The probes struck his left upper arm and left torso area. Subject immediately went
to the ground. Several minutes later, while awaiting the paramedics to arrive and remove the probes, he attempted
to stand up again. I allowed the M26 to cycle for 3 seconds, at which point suspect became cooperative.
Paramedics removed probes and subject was placed in a restraint chair. Subject was cooperative for remainder of
time in custody, and posted bail several hours later. The M26 worked perfectley with this person. The subject
could not fight the effects the M26 produced. Subject had been drinking for approximately 12 hours at time of
arrest.
Comment: Only verbal abuse (swearing, cussing). The first full 5 second cycle put him on the ground and
stopped him from screaming. The second 3 second cycle took any of the fight in him away. After
he was removed from the restraint chair, the subject went along with the program 100%.

Sgt deployed the M26 as he began to run and immediately fell to the ground. The upper probe struck his upper
left shoulder blade. Lower probe missed low, it may have struck the grass. Subject stayed on the ground for the
full 5-second cycle. Field officers were reluctant to touch the target while the M26 was running. Field SGT
switched the unit to safe after the first 5 seconds. The subject got up and ran past officers and towards the officer
holding the bean-bag gun. Subject took 4 bean bag rounds with zero affect. The SGT attempted to re-cycle the
M26 but lost contact due to the lower probe had disengaged. Officers swarmed the subject without further
incident.
Comment: Suspect thought he had been shot with "spidermans net." Sgt's comment: SGT has gov't model 45
which has the safety feature similar to the M26 on-off switch. He feels that with more training he
won't disengage the M26 premuture. SGT advised that the M26 worked as promised and will train
his officers to step in quicker to handcuff subjects.
Analysis: Immediately dropped subjec even with the one probe hit. Arrest team reluctant to touch
subject during 5-second cycle. More training will resolve this issue.

On 01-04-01 earlier in the day we did a controlled narcotice buy from suspect vehicle. Not wanting to burn the CI
we waited to conduct a stop on the vehicle. Later in the day approx. 1530 hrs. officers re-located the vehicle
parked in the middle of the road and the driver was talking to someone blocking traffic. The suspect got into his
Comment: Thanks again for the M26 and next time I hope we the police don't have to get shock therapy. Upon
booking the driver he stated he felt the current, but it lacked. I had good batteries in the M26, but
they were not new. Upon speaking to the officers who were stunned, they advised me it was
enough to make them let go for a second after being hit. I also felt the current and it caused the
index finger on my left hand to hurt for several minutes after. I put in a new tape on New Year's Eve
and still have approx 4 1/2 hrs of video left. Upon filling the tape and it clearing I will attempt to

chase continued for approximately 6 blocks at a low speed, suddenly the vehicle turned right on another street S.
East then left into a yard at 510 S East. Two cars chased with video rolling.
The driver was still in his vehicle. Other officers had their weapons drawn and were ordering the driver to exit. An
officer with an M26 walked towards the driver going between the line of

calm down because he was cursing police and refusing to comply with their orders. Upon my getting closer, the
M26 officer ordered the driver to place his hands on the top of his vehicle, but he refused. Officer ordered him a
second time and still he refused. Officer then pointed the M26 at the driver and ordered him to comply and still he
refused. Within arms reach, the M26 officer grabbed the driver with his left hand and turned him around still
ordering him to place his hands on the vehicle. Other officers then swarmed him and as they were able to grab
onto him he began to resist by trying to get loose. The M26 officer then began ordering him to calm down and
relax then advised him he would be shocked. Still the driver refused to be cuffed so the officer removed the
cartridge and pressed the trigger. As the phase began the officer placed the M26 firmly against the driver's right
upper thigh for approximately 1 1/2 to 2 seconds and the officers took him to the ground. Still the driver was being
ordered to comply and still he was refusing. Officer continued to order the driver to place his arms behind his back
advising he would be shocked but he continued to refuse. Officer activated the phase again and placed the M26
against his right rear thigh for a second time again only for approximately 2 seconds. This time it appeared to have
very little effect to the driver, but caused two officers to be shocked who were holding onto the driver. Not sure
why? The officer had the M26 against his leg, but not very hard. It appeared his pants were starched, but was
that the reason for officers being shocked??? Still the driver refused to comply so the officer continued to order
the driver to comply as well as the other officers were and still no compliance. I then tased the driver for a third
time on the upper right shoulder blade area gaining compliance.
...A search was conducted of his person and vehicle and officers were unable to located any narcotics. On the
driver's person was approx. 1200 dollars in cash. After calming all of the driver's friends and family that had
gathered we were able to transport the driver to the PD for booking. Upon a thorough search of the driver a piece
of crack cocaine approx. 1/2 x 1/2 was located in an inside pocket of his sweat shirt. The driver acted as if this was
nothing stating, "That's just a little piece I got from a friend." Officers were also able to recover the marked 20
dollar bill that was used earlier to purchase the narcotics from the vehicle. All in all the arrest went well and upon
the driver's mother arriving at the PD and my speaking to her she first tried to say we the police had beat her son
with and stick repeatedly and shocked him without cause. The mother even had two hand written statements from
witnesses in the driver's behalf... After speaking to the mother and telling her what had taken place I advised her
the steps for her to file a formal complaint. I also advised the mother of my police units videoing the entire incident
and her face changed. The mother even tried to accuse officers of planting the narcotics on her son, but after her
son admitted to having the narcotics the mother had nothing to say. Upon filing all the reports and speaking to
the chief he advised me as we were arresting the driver a lady called him advising him we were beating the driver.

Description:
Officers responded to a fight call in the lobby of an hotel. When the first officer arrived he immediately was
confronted with the subject who was fighting with his friend. He asked that his back-up expedite and attempted to
gain control of the subject. After a physical fight with the subject he was brought under control by several
officers and handcuffed but still struggling. When I arrived three firemen and one police officer were holding him
down. He was moaning and talking incoherently and was still struggling to get up. The gurney arrived and one
firefighter advised the two EMT personnel that it would take all of them to put him on the gurney and secure him. I
was standing near the subjects head and deployed the laser of the M26 onto the tile near his face. He immediately
saw the laser and I moved it to his chest. He stopped struggling and started to respond to our commands to calm
down. I then asked him if he could get up on his own and sit on the gurney. He said he would and did so by
himself after the
officers let him go. His focus was totally on the Taser as they tied him down. I stepped away from the gurney and
the subject kept looking up to see where I was standing. His demeanor stayed calm on the trip to the hospital
without further incident.
Comment: The only comment I heard the subject say was "DON'T" I guess believing he would be shot by the
Taser with the Laser.

At 1955 hrs on 1/6/01 patrol sub-division, officers responded to a Domestic Violence complaint at a local apt.
complex. Once on scene, officers determined an arrest would be made on the suspect for assaulting his wife. The
suspect who had a long criminal history for felonious assault, burglary, child endangering and domestic violence,
armed himself with several knives in the kitchen of the apt. and threatened to kill any police officers who tried to
arrest him. Field Supervisors requested activation of our Special Response Team to deal with the barricaded
suspect at 2016 hrs. An SRT Sgt responded directly to the scene with emergency gear and one M26. Upon arrival,
the SRT Sgt was briefed and advised the suspect was threatening to rush and kill officers. Perimeters and
evacuations of the area were already in place. The suspect was observed in the kitchen area armed with two large
knives in each hand. Patrol sub-division officers were at gun point, attempting to get the suspect to surrender.
The SRT Sgt formulated a plan that if the suspect moved from the kitchen with the knives, a shot would be taken
with the M26 and if the unit was successful in taking the suspect down, a second officer positioned with a
concave lexan jail shield would "pin" the suspect to the floor until he could be handcuffed. These actions would
be backed-up by two officers using lethal force if necessary. With additional SRT members and Negotiators
enroute, officers at the scene continued to negotiate with the suspect for surrender. Without notice, the armed
suspect started toward officers from the kitchen and the SRT Sgt fired one shot with the M26. he took approx. 4
seconds. The officerI wanted to give the suspect the full 5 seconds, however he became disabled so quickly the
shield man moved in requiring me to turn off the unit. The suspect fell immediately to the floor dropping the
knives from his hands. The assigned officer was given a "go" and pinned the suspect to the floor. The suspect
was taken into custody without further resistance. Suspect in custody at 2056 hrs.
Post firing: The top probe hit center chest with full skin penetration, the botom probe impacted the left trouser
pocket area with clothing penetration only. CFFD Medics removed the top probe at the scene. No hospital trip
required. This suspect had been to prison and was of a muscular build. He was wearing no shirt and two pairs of
trousers. Top probe was point of aim, point of impact with the laser aiming system.
Comment: All the suspect kept repeating was "you guys are good"...

small children. The responding officers obtained contact with the suspect, and the suspect refused to cooperate.
Suspect continued to put hands into coat after being told not to. Suspect refused to be patted down for weapons,
and began to resist arrest. The officers attempted to utilize control holds, but they were ineffective. The officers
then used their O.C., but it was ineffective. During the struggle to apprehend the suspect, the suspect assaulted
the officers numerous times by punching them with closed fists. The officers then attempted to use their ASP
batons on the suspect, but it also was ineffective. Suspect knocked out the second story window of the bedroom
in an attempt to escape. The officer was then provided with the M26 TASER and shot the TASER at the suspect

seconds, but before the officers could get to the suspect, the suspect jumped up after the five seconds and
jumped out the window. This broke the leads, and a short foot pursuit ensued. The suspect was later captured
and taken into custody.
Comment: Suspect stated that when shot with TASER, he was unable to move and that it locked him up

The female suspect was a just released mental patient from the Sacramento County Mental Health facility. She had
obtained a razor blade and knelt outside on the sidewalk near the facility. She had begun to cut herself over several
parts of her body, including her arms and torso. When the officers arrived she was kneeling with the razor blade
in her right hand. She initially threatened the officers with the razor blade, and said she would kill herself if anyone
tried to stop her. Two officers came up behind her and each officer was able to grab one arm, but she clutched the
razor blade in her right hand and would not release it. Not wanting to force her hand open with the blade still in it,
the officers decided to deploy the M26 in Stun Gun mode. The weapon was placed on her right rear shoulder area
(B9) and after a full 5-second cycle she immediately released the blade onto the ground, saying "I give I give." The
woman was then handcuffed and placed onto a gurney for medical treatment. None of the officers were impacted
or shocked at all.
Comment: The officer who actually used the M26 had been issued the device at the TASER class three days
prior to this incident. His quote was "This works great!! No one got hurt, and we saved the lady

Description:
Officers were trying to effect an arrest on suspect regarding a restraining order violation. Suspect was encou
ntered hiding behind a couch in the living room area. When confronted and told to place his hands behind his
back, he took up a defensive posture and said he wasn't going. I then retrieved the M26 from my rear pocket and
told him to comply or he would be shot with the taser. He replied "Go ahead fucking shoot me". The suspect then
ran towards me and pushed me back into the wall and pushed his way through the front door. I ran after him
outside and when I rounded the corner of the house, he was about fifteen feet in front of me and I aimed the laser
between the shoulder blades and fired while running. Both darts barley penetrated a thick Denim jacket and the
sparks were observed jumping across his back, as though trying to make contact. The taser was fired a second
time with the same darts at which time the sparks connected at the lower part of his neck at which time he fell to the
ground. "Game Over"
Comment: He asked why I shot him with a bean bag

Description:
While patrolling the International District in Seattle officer was contacted by a shop owner and informed that a
transient was trespassing behind their building and requested that the subject be moved. Once contacted the
subject a Hispanic male approx. 5'10 175 lbs was asked to leave the premises. At this time the subject became
agitated and began using profanity to describe his feelings on being asked to leave. The subject was beginning to
become physically aggressive and at this time the determination to physically remove the subject was made. The
subject was then escorted from the property back to public thoroughfare. The subject immediately returned to the
locations that he had been removed from. My partner and myself returned to the location and while attempting to
remove the subject again, he struck my partner in the back almost knocking him to the ground. I made the decision
to deploy the M26 due to the aggressive nature of this subject. I deployed the M26 and fired at the subject. Both
darts hit the subject, the top dart hit in the upper left arm and the bottom dart struck his coat at the waist. Due to
the fact that his coat was open and away from his body the arc only made contact when he moved and his coat
came close enough to his body. The subject had to be restrained by physical force. No injuries were sustained by
either party.

reluctant to do so and was trying to get out the door. He kept saying he was ok. He was hesitant to listen to the
officer also, until she introduced the M26 TASER. When she "cracked"with a spark demo and explained what
would happen, he immediately cooperated. (did not have cartridge)

out of his house before officers arrived. Officers talked subject out and into the EMS ambulance where he was
strapped down. He somehow freed himself from the straps and started fighting with officers and EMS personnel in
ambulance. Officers sprayed subject with OC (Fox Labs latest and most powerful stuff) and he continued fighting.
Officer took the cartridge out of his M26 and applied it to the subjects back for approx. 1/2 second. He
immediately became compliant. Officers cuffed him and strapped him back down to the cart. Used "Stun" only
because of the close confines of the EMS Ambulance and the number of personnel also crammed inside at this
time.

Description:
An officer responded on report of a family fight in progress. He arrived at the location and as he was approaching,
observed a male puching another male out of the house and into the parking lot. Officer told both subjects to
stop and raise their hands above their heads. One subject, the victim of the pushing, complied. The other did not.
The other subject turned and aggressively approached the officer. Subject said he didn't have to do anything.
Officer told him to stop and repeated his commands to raise his hands. The subject still did not comply and
advanced. Officer pointed the TASER at the subject and repeated commands. The subject did not comply and
told him, "What are you going to do, fucking shoot me?" The subject advanced in an agressive mannner. The
officer fired the M26. The probes struck the subject center mass on the chest. The subject stopped advancing
and just stood there. The TASER cycled the full 5 seconds. The subject was told to prone out. He complied and
was taken into custody without further resistance. The subject was wearing a baggy, heavy coat. The probes
impacted the coat and did not penetrate the skin. We believe that the coat prevented the T-waves from getting to
the subject because it fit loosely. We also believe the subject thinks the officer actually shot at him. He made
comments afterward to the effect that he couldn't believe the officer shot him when he was doing "nothing wrong."
He requested to been seen by medical.
Comment:
Analysis: The subject froze but it is unclear if it was a phycial or psychological reaction. The M26
succesfully subdued the individual from a use of force presence.

Description:
On 12/23/00 at approximately 0212 hrs three officers from the Lafayette, Co Police Department were dispatched to a
loud juvenile party. Upon our arrival we contacted approximately 16 people involved in a loud party. Two parties
fled the scene on foot and one of the parties was apprehended after a short foot pursuit. The second party, a 17 yr
old Hispanic male who was under the influence of alcohol returned to the scene and was contacted by officers still
on scene. This party walked past one officer and straight toward a second officer. The suspect had his hands
hidden in his shirt and refused to show his hands to officers despite
repeated loud verbal commands to stop and show his hands. This officer drew the M26 advanced taser and
activated the laser sight, placing the red dot on the advancing suspect and issuing verbal warning to comply or he
would be tasered. The suspect saw the laser dot on his chest and stopped and put his hands where they could be
seen. The suspect then placed his hands behind his back but when another officer attempted to place him into
custody he became combative and was taken to the ground using a PPCT arrest control method. This officer then
removed the cartridge from the front of the M26 advanced taser and moved toward the area of the struggle. The
suspect continued to resist arrest and managed to get to his knees and attempted to strike an officer with a closed
fist. This officer again issued repeated verbal commands and warnings that he would be tasered if he continued to
resist. The suspect continued to resist and this officer applied the stun gun application of the M26 advanced
taser to the lower left back of the resisting suspect. The suspect immediately became rigid and fell forward onto
the ground and was placed into custody. The taser was applied for approximately three seconds. It should be
noted the crowd of approximately 15 other parties began to advance on officers and this officer again pointed the
taser at the crowd and activated the laser on the M26
Comment: The suspect made the comment at the hospital due his medical clearance that he did not remember
being tasered. It should also be noted there was only a slight reddening of the area the TASER was
applied and no other injuries

Description:
Patrol officers were sent to a reported "suicidal female with a knife." Upon arrival they located the female inside an
apartment yelling at then through an open kitchen window. The female was armed with a butcher knife and a 2
foot long stick, stating that she was going to kill herself. The day before, in another jurisdiction 25 miles away, the
female was the subject of another similar incident in which she was ultimately swarmed by several officers. The
female repeatedly yelled that we (police) were not to approach because she did not want to get jumped again.
After approximately an hour a Certified M26 TASER operator moved into position near the window. The female
turned her back and walked away from the window at which point the TASER operator moved up in front of the
open window. The female suddenly turned and began approaching the window with the knife and stick held
above her head. The TASER was deployed from a distance of 10.5 feet. The first dart penetrated the center chest
and the second dart lodged in the clothing of the right upper thigh. The female stopped immediately, dropped
both knife and stick, and fell backwards to the ground and curled into a fetal position. The female was subjected to
the 5-second cycle and was then taken into custody without further incident. WORKED PERFECTLY!!!

Description:
The suspect ran from a stolen vehicle and was believed to be armed. He was located by hiding under a vehicle a
short distance away. He refused to comply with commands to exit his hiding location. The TASER was deployed
for a 5-second cycle and commands were once again issued. The suspect did not comply, so a 2nd cycle was
initiated. During this cycle, officers
swarmed to the suspect and removed him from under the car.
Comment: The suspect verified the full affects of the taser in terms of severe pain which caused him to be very
disoriented. He told arresting officers that he could not move and really could not respond to the
commands due to the pain.

Description:
Officers responded to a Domestic call at a single dwelling residence at 0401 hours on 121700 and upon arrival made
contact with a female subject who stated that her husband was threatening to jump from a second floor window if
she left the room they were in to talk to the officers. The officers instructed her that the height of the room was not
such that the subject could do much harm if he did jump and she left and met the officers at the main doorway to
the house. The officers encountered the subject who was armed with a knife in a bedroom who was threatening to
"end it now" and officers retreated and called for a supervisor. The suspect stayed at the top of the stairway with
the knife in hand threatening to kill himself and threatening to have officers kill him. The subject was intoxicated
and he went through mood swings during the discussions he was having with officers and the supervisor on the
scene. A hostage negotiator was called to the scene and took over talking to the subject. The subject started
down the stairs several times during the negotiations, but would turn and run back up the stairs. The suspect
threw one knife down the stairs, but then produced another one. The duty Lieutenant, who is the A Entry Team
Leader for the Department Special Operations Squad (SWAT) arrived and deployed a M26. The subject continued
to become irate and irrational and demanded officers to shoot him. The subject finally started toward the
negotiator with the knife in an aggressive manner and was shot with the M26 at 0442 hours. The subject turned
and took two to three steps up the stairs and then fell to the ground. He was given a full five 5-second charge.
The prongs embedded in his left pinkie finger and left upper leg. He fell with his hands under him. The officers
forced one arm behind his back and the subject complied and put the other back. The knife was recovered from
under his legs. The subject was transported via ambulance to the hospital to have the prongs removed as per
Departmental policy. There were no other injuries to the subject and no injuries to officers. The subject was not
charged with a crime and was admitted to the hospital for mental evaluation.
Comment: While waiting on an ambulance, the suspect was asked if he was OK. He stated that at first he
thought he had been shot by a handgun and he thought that's how it felt, since he has never been
shot. He then said that he realized that he wasn't bleeding and then thought that he had been
electrocuted, but was not sure what that was like either. He said it just hurt.

Intoxicated subject had threatened roommate with a knife and roommate struck him on the head with a vacuum
cleaner causing a large bleeding head wound.
First responding officers had to physically subdue and handcuff the bloody subject. Subject then became
combative by thrashing and kicking at officers. Officers felt subject was a harm to them and himself and did not
want to continue physical force in fear of aggravating subject's injuries. Also, they were on a 2nd level balcony in
tight quarters, unable to position themselves to properly and safely physically restrain subject. Patrol Sergeant
demonstrated TASER as a deterrent to subject, but the
subject said, "Go ahead and shock me." Sergeant then used TASER as a touch stun device on subject's rear
shoulder area. Subject then complied and was able to be transported to local hospital. Note: Sergeant did not use
full five second activation, causing him to use TASER two more times (2-3 seconds ea.) Total use was 3
applications.

A mentally ill inmate armed himself with a razor blade and a homemade sap and refused to surrender the weapons.
Two M26s were deployed. The inmate was seated at a table in his cell ignoring all verbal commands. One M26
was fired striking the inmate in the right side. EMD in his right side was evident. A second M26 was fired while
the first cycle of the first one was still continuing. This also impacted his right side and right arm. A cell extraction
team then entered the cell and pinned the inmate to the ground while the M26s were still discharging. The inmate
was secured to the ground by the team. The teams entry severed the wires to the first M26 but the second M26
continued to function during the twelve to fifteen seconds it took to handcuff the inmate.

Description:
On 07-13-00 at approximately 1130hrs officers responded to the local hospital for a report of a mentally unstable
individual refusing to be transported to a psychiatric hospital. Upon arrival the officers were initially able to
establish verbal communications with the suspect. Approximately six city patrol officers and two county sheriff's
deputies took up position surrounding the suspect in a half circle. The initial responder (Harrisonburg patrol
officer) confronted the suspect, and attempted to build a rapport with him. The suspect became very agitated and
began cursing the officer. The suspect stated that he was not leaving and was not talking to anyone. The suspect
took an aggressive position as he continued to be belligerent towards the officer. The initial officer, armed with an
Advanced M26 TASER, displayed the weapon to the suspect. The officer then told the suspect that we were not
going to fight him, but if he resisted us, the officer would deploy the M26 TASER. The officer notified the suspect
that the M26 would unleash 50,000 volts of electricity, causing him to be immobilized. The officer, displaying the
M26, sparked the weapon. The suspect's attitude quickly changed. The suspect became very low keyed, and
calmly asked when he could appeal the order. The officers cuffed the suspect without incident.

DETAILS
Description:
Suspect was drunk and had been fighting with his father. On arrival, officers were able to handcuff the suspect,
but he later became combative and tried to kick officers. TASER was requested, and suspect stated he'd been
"tased" before, and it didn't work. I arrived and performed "spark demo." Suspect said, "Go ahead, hit me with
that thing." Suspect was ordered to extend his legs and hold still for leg irons. He refused, and pulled his legs
underneath himself. An initial Stun application was made to the left trapezious/shoulder blade, with no apparent
effect. A second Stun application was made to a pressure point near the left collarbone area, per training.
Immediate effect was achieved, as suspect extended his legs, stopped talking, and passively submitted to leg
cuffing. He was walked to and placed in the transport wagon without further comment or incident
Comment: Prior to my arrival, officers advised suspect about the TASER. He stated he’d been hit with a
TASER before (Tasertron) and it didn’t affect him. IF I’ve already filed the use, please add the
comment (as the stun gun use shut this guy up good!). Thanks for a great product. After suspect
was safely behind the locked doors of the transport wagon, he stated, "That felt good!"
Analysis: Prime example of using a stun gun on a pressure point versus a non-pressure point. The
PP near the collarbone had a dramatically different effect than the trapezious.

Description:
Suspect has assaulted his common-law wife, and barricaded himself in the house. Due to the presence of a dog
inside the house, K-9 search was quickly ruled out. Arrest team forced entry and contacted suspect in his
bedroom. He was lying on his bed, with his hands up near two pillows. Suspect repeated, "I don't have a gun!
Shoot me, shoot me! I don't have a gun, shoot me!" Suspect was ordered seven times to place his hands behind
his head, but ignored all commands and kept his hands up near the pillows. Fearing he might arm himself with a
concealed weapon, M26 TASER was deployed from approximately 8 feet away. Effect was immediate, as suspect
spun over to his left, and placed his hands behind his head. He was cuffed without further incident.
Comment: Suspect believed he had been shot with a firearm, and thought he had been severely injured due to
the immediate pain of the M26. When advised he'd only been tased, suspect tearfully stated he
would never hurt his wife or disobey the police again.

Description:
Suspect was contacted ref. a subject disturbing call. Initially he was calm and cooperative. He then ran from the
officers knowing he had a probation violation warrant. When the officers caught up to him he brandished a fence
slat with nails and struck two officers. He was peppered sprayed with negative results. He was then caught in a
backyard. 1st TASER shot was to his left side. It knocked him down and he started to comply but then fought
through after the 5-second cycle and he was able to pull the wires out before a second burst. He was shot a
second time by the TASER. Again it knocked him down but he again fought through. He was then hit 9 times
with bean bag rounds at one point turning to officers and begging to be shot. Prior to this pepper spray had been
deployed with no effect. A K-9 was sent in and he hit the dog with a long wooden handle. The suspect was
asking officers to shoot him. A third TASER was used along with two police K-9's. The TASER knocked him
down again and the dogs rendered him disabled enough to be taken into custody.
Comment: While at the hospital I spoke to the suspect. He stated he felt the TASER and that the electrical
stun did hurt, but he knew he was going back to prison and that is why he fought through it.
Suspect admitted to being on a three day methamphetamine binge as well as being bi-polar and not
on his meds.
Analysis: Upon review with the dept Master Instructor, it was determined that the suspect was
immobilized enough that officers could have gone hands on to the subject and cuffed the
subject. However, the officers on scene were not aware that the subject could be touched
during the TASER cycle. Training has not been updated at the PD. Rick Smith reviewed
the incident with the shooter. The shooter related that the suspect was immobilized during
the TASER. However, due to the high level of danger of the suspect, officers did not go
hands-on during the TASER cycle. After the cycle was over, he pulled the darts out. On
the third application, the commanding officer deployed the K-9's to help restrain the
suspect while he was being hit with the TASER. This was an innovative solution which
allowed the suspect to be restrained using the dogs during the TASER application. The
shooter related that the TASER was successful in knocking down the suspect and that the
dogs were a part of the apprehension process.

Description:
Officers made traffic stop on suspect. He had no DL and would not give SSN information. It was finally
determined that he had a Felony Warrant outstanding. He was then ordered out of his vehicle and told to lay
Comment: At seeing Laser sight on himself: "What's that?" When told: "I'll cooperate." When asked in later
interview if he could feel the electric shock when TASER was buried into his back: "A little bit".
Analysis: Failure Analysis report: We reviewed the Air Cartridge and the blast doors were missing.
Our Dir. of Operations and Chief Engineer meet w/ me (Steve Tuttle) in the conference
and put this cartridge in an M26 and attempted to fire it. Without the doors on there, it is
sometimes difficult to fire the weapon as the doors have a smidgen of conductive silver
paint that leads the electrical current downside to the primer to fire open the nitrogen
canister. This can cause a misfire or a delayed firing. When we attempted to fire this
cartridge, it fired after approximately 7 pulses (a delayed firing). The batteries were
rechargeable Energizer AA Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries and had a very fast
and strong pulse rate in a room at approximately 70 degrees.
In the case in which this unit was pulled out and fired upon the subject, if the doors were
off prior to the firing, this could have caused the misfire especially if the weather was cold
(causing the batteries to be cold) and the batteries were somewhat low (assuming Duracell
Ultra alkaline batteries were used).
I would tend to doubt that the doors fell off during the touch stun confrontation since the
unit (albeit delayed) did fire the cartridge with proper deployment of the probes.
As for the touch stun device not being very effective: The fact that the Air Cartridge was
inside the M26 shouldn't have changed the parameters of the effectiveness. However, if
the batteries were cold, then that would dramatically slow down the pulse rate and not
cause as much compliance. The M26 is much more effective according the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police if it is used in the touch stun areas around the pelvic triangle, the
intercostals (between the ribs), the neck and ears. As you know, the spread of the touch
stun is so much more small than when the probes are used, that the touch stun is not as
effective as the TASER mode.

Officers called to Domestic Fight with suspect who had been drinking and was Mentally Disturbed. Very
confrontational and delusional. Finally persuaded suspect to go to Mental Health Facility in Patrol Wagon. Once
there he refused to go in and started to walk away (He would not get into the Patrol Wagon though until he was
confronted with the TASER). He then assumed a defensive stance. and became very confrontational. Officer fired
the Taser at him. The probes stuck into his open windbreaker jacket (only had T-shirt underneath) and had no
effect. Suspect was then sprayed with OC and taken to the ground. He was then handcuffed and taken into
custody.

Description:
The Taser M26 has been used in Western Australia for the first time. I fired one capsule into an offender who had
just committed a robbery on a jewellery shop using a machette and replica pistol. He was about to run away, so
my partner tackled him about the head and I shot him in the thigh and lower back with the darts. It was at about
two metres range only, as he made a change of direction as we cut him off during a foot chase. He was knocked to
the ground by my partner at the same time, so I only observed the effect as he was face down on the ground.
Even though he was being held by my partner, I observed the offender's legs to shake and he groaned. He later
reported to me that he didn't realise he had been hit with anything and thought he got a big cramp in his leg. My
partner reported no effects from the TASER.
One dart was lodged in his clothing in the lower back area, and this came away easily. The other dart was in his
right thigh, through his jeans. When I pulled this, and held aroung the entry point as recommended, the point
remained in his leg and the metal tube of the dart came away.
The offender wasn't aware of the point in his leg for some time and didn't suffer any significant pain. The inquiry
officers and I took him to the the emergency room at Royal Perth Hospital and he had the point removed by a
doctor under local anesthetic using pliers and a small incision with a scalpel. No sutures were required and no
significant bleeding occured.
A second offender from the same offence was tackled by a couple of our other officers and was proving difficult to
restrain, so he was hit twice with the taser, just using the electrodes on the end of the handpiece, and not a
capsule. It apparently had a significant effect on that offender with him yelling out and shaking, but no effect on
the other officers grappling with him. The offender put up no resistance after the second shot and was easily
handcuffed.
The Taser was a very useful tool on that operation. One observation I did make was that there seemed to be a
delay in the Taser launching the darts after I pulled the trigger. The delay would have been very short in reality,
and only appeared long to me, due to my perception of time being slowed during the incident.
The Taser has a very different trigger pull when compared to a normal firearm with a mechanical action. I believe I
would be more confident using the Taser if it had a similar mechanical action. It is certainly effective as it is, but
having it feel like using a normal firearm would make it easier to incorporate into operational use.

Description:
The subject was the driver of a stolen car. After fleeing, he abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot into a
residential area of single family homes and dense landscaping. He was located in a large tree by a canine. The
subject had positioned himself 12 feet from the ground in a partial hollowed trunk of the tree and refused to exit.
The only visible part of the suspect was the back of his t-shirt revealing a 18 inch tall and 6 inch
wide area. The subject refused numerous commands to show his hands and exit the tree. This created an officer
safety concern due to the serious of the crime and the lack of cooperation of the subject. After several warnings
and display of the TASER (even though the subject was not looking, he could only hear the Taser), he still refused
to exit the tree or show his hands and officers didn't know if the subject had possession of any weapons. The
TASER was deployed from 6 feet and the subject yelled turn it off several times and exited the tree. Subject moved
immediately nd would exit the tree whre had secreted himself. Immediately showed his hands upon request. As
the subject exited the tree, the dart that penetrated his back was still in contact. The other wire was tangled in the
vines and was not in contact with the subject as he came down. This second wire may never have hit the subject
but made contact with the tree around the subject. The subject began to run before a second cartridge was loaded
and consequently was captured by canine.
Comment:
Analysis: Potential one probe hit that was effective as the 2nd probe may have hit a branch that the
subject was in contact with. This incident occurred prior to the secondary cartridge holder
became avialiable.

Description:
A man had been given a jail sentence before the holidays, and the judge had scheduled the man in to serve the
time after the new year. He failed to report to jail and a warrant had been issued. Our officers had been to the
house several times in the past week trying to serve the warrant, and the man had been able to flee on foot as the
officers arrived. On 1-19-01 2230 hrs., two officers checked the residence. When one officer went onto the front
porch, the suspect spotted the officer and ran upstairs to the second floor. The other officer had taken up a
position at the back of the house and saw the subject go out a second floor window onto a roof over the back
porch. The other family members present informed me that rather than go to jail, the man had stated he would kill
himself, and they had just taken a kitchen knife from the man before we arrived. An officer ran to the back of the
house with the M26 TASER and put the laser beam on his chest. The man saw the red dot and asked, "What is
that?" and started to try to brush the dot off his chest with his hands!!!! We informed him that he really didn't
want to find out what that red dot was all about, and that he should go back inside to surrender to us. We talked
with him a few more seconds while pointing the M26 at him. He laid down flat on the roof so we could no longer
target him with the laser, then he jumped up and went back in the window. I could not take a shot at him due to the
following: He could have fallen more than 12 feet off this roof, and the power lines that serviced the house were
right behind the man. I did not wish for him to fall off the roof, or fall on the power lines to the house. The laser
beam alone scared him off the roof. Once we had additional officers available, we continued to maintain security
outside, while other officers searched the house. The man was hiding under a bed, and pepper spray was squirted
under the bed to get him to come out.
Comment:
Analysis: M26 laser worked well until he was out of range.

Description:
Officers responded to suicidal subject. Discover subject asleep on a bed surrounded by pills. Subject woke up
and immediately became violent and lunged at officers. The TASER was deployed, both probes striking subject in
the back while subject was standing. Subject turned towards officer deploying TASER and was able to knock the
weapon from the officer's hands. Subject was able to walk and lunge in slow motion. Officers used physical force
to get the subject to the ground. He continued to struggle. TASER officer used the touch stun application of the
TASER 2 times applying the weapon to the subject's right leg. Subject stated, "Please don't shoot me anymore."
The weapon appeared to get the subject's attention, but did not overcome his resistance. Weapon is being
returned to TASER for testing.
Comment: "Please don't shoot me anymore." after third application
Analysis: The incident was reviewed. The training of the officers did not include optimum locations
on the touch stun. The leg is one of the more immune areas on a focused individual
compared to an area with a pressure point. The initial shot was also taken from a very
short distance and the spread was highly unusual in that the probes were right to left in a

DETAILS
Description:
Officers were dispatched to a rural neighborhood for a report of a domestic disturbance. Upon arrival of the first
officer found that the female suspect had illegally entered the home of her ex-husband without his consent. She
had also failed to pay for fuel that she had obtained at a 24hr convenience store a few miles away, prior to arriving
at the home of the ex-husband. Upon a brief interview of the ex-husband by the officer, it was determined that the
suspect had not lived at the residence for over a year and the marraige had been legally dissolved for the same
period of time. Suspect admitted that she had entered the home without consent committing RESIDENTIAL
ENTRY, a Class D Felony. Suspect was advised that she was under arrest and was then asked to comply with the
officer for removal from the home. Suspect went to an adjacent chair and sat down
displaying passive resistance. Two officers then handcuffed the suspect and one deputy walked her outside to be
placed in the patrol car for transport while sgt. remained inside the residence to obtain further info from the
ex-husband. While deputy was escorting the handcuffed suspect to the patrol car, the suspect realized that she
was not going to be released and allowed to go home as they walked past her vehicle on the way to the patrol car.
She became very upset and started to kick and attempt to bite the deputy. The sgt. came outside to assist the
deputy and was also kicked by the handcuffed suspect. Both officers carry the Advanced TASER M26. The sgt
concluded the M26 should be deployed rather than OC Spray due to the strong winds present outside the
residence. The suspect was now standing next to the patrol car with the rear door open and had placed her legs
against the vehicle to resist being placed into the back of the patrol car. The kicking and bite attempts continued.
The suspect has a history of mental illness and this was also factor in the decision to use the M26. The sgt drew
his M26 and displayed the arc in an attept to gain compliance, however there was no response by the suspect.
The sgt then displayed the arc a second time, still with no result. The sgt. then used two 5-second contact stuns
on the suspect and she immediately complied. The suspect was transported to the Morgan County Jail without
further incident.
The suspect was charged with RESIDENTIAL ENTRY, RESISTING LAW ENFORCEMENT, and THEFT
Comment: During the deployment of the touch stun the subject yelled, "STOP! STOP! ENOUGH! ENOUGH!"

DETAILS
Description:
On 02/01/01 at 1349 hrs, an officer investigated an assault which had occurred at a home for delinquint children.
Investigation disclosed the juvenile had just been released from a hospital, where she had been housed for twelve
days for having "homicidal tendencies." Since her return to the home she had become involved in a physical
scuffle with staff members on 01/30/01 that was not reported to the police. Subject was returned to the hospital
and released on 01/31/01. On 02/01/01, the juvenile physically assaulted a female staff member and had to be
restrained by five staff members. The juvenile was located in a detention room where she had been physically and
verbally out of control. Juvenile had been making threats of stabbing a particular staff member and this threat was
supported with a letter she had written to another youth. Due to the small enclosed environment and the potential
for resistance, this officer opted to deploy the Advanced Taser M26. Cap Stun was not an option should force be
needed, due to contamination which would result in the
evacuation of sixty other youths and staff members from the area. This officer advised the youth, should she
choose to fight she would be subjected to a 50,000 volt charge from the Taser. The mere suggestion of this option
caused this person to comply with every request made by this officer and medical personnel. The laser activation
and spark demo where not needed in this incident. Subject was transported to a local hospital for evaluation
concerning her emotional outbreaks of violence. Note: Due to the enclosed environment, this officer had opted
for a contact deployment only. No probes were to be used.
Comment: While sitting in the ambulance, the juvenile stated " I don't know what you
got there, I know I don't want to be shocked with it".

Description:
Officer spotted suspect wanted on Felony Warrant. Subject ran from officer ignoring verbal commands to stop.
Officer fired M26 as suspect was running. Suspect fell immediately, as did the officer. The front of the M26 struck
the ground as the officer fell, knocking the cartridge from the weapon. The suspect got up and ran a short
distance before being apprehended by the officers. The officer stated the TASER effectively stopped the suspect
in his tracks, however, the officer's fall gave the suspect a short lived second opportunity to unsuccessfully
attempt to escape capture.
Comment: None
Analysis: M26 dropped subject, but the effects did stop when the unit was dropped to the ground
when the cartridge fell out.

Immediately after being hit, suspect cried, and pleaded
with officers not to "zap" him again. He became totally cooperative, apologetic, and made the most

Anoka County Dispatch had reported an irate male had called them from a residence. Dispatch advised the male
was screaming and threatening to kill any officers he sees. Subject approached officers in the street yelling and
screaming to officers, "Bring it on," "I'm going to kill you," and "Go ahead and kill me." Subject was told several
times to stop and get on the ground. Subject continued to walk towards officers. Subject began to reach his right
hand into his jacket. A sergeant and an officer deployed two M26s simultaneously on subject. Another officer
provided backup with his service weapon. Subject immediately fell to the ground yelling. Both Tasers were
allowed to cycle for the full 5-seconds on the subject. Upon approaching the subject he stated, "Shoot me again!"
Subject was handcuffed without further incident. Subject was searched and no weapons were found. Subject did
state as he was handcuffed, "God damn that hurt!" Subject later made the statement, "I'd rather get shot than hit
with that thing again." Subject was transported to Anoka County Detox. NOTE: Probe contact #1 - probe stuck in
subject's right shoulder jacket. #2 - Probe penetrated subject's upper right chest area. #3 - Probe penetrated
subject's upper right leg. #4 - Probe fell off subject's clothing while rolling him over to be placed in handcuff's.

Description:
Suspect was apprehended leaving the scene of a vehicle prowl after assaulting the victim who tried to intervene.
Upon arrest, suspect became physically combative and tried to assault officers. Pepper spray in the field was
essentially in-effective. In booking, subject continued with verbal threats, abuse, and hostility. He began to spit
at officers and would not cease with verbal commands. Deployment was then made. We had an unusual subject
however. When the officer deployed, the subject instinctively raised his arm and one probe hit there. The other
hit dead center of his chest and his body type is very thin, boney, and the probe went into cartlidge. Even though
he was sitting, I could see the objective results as the hit took place. 5-second cycle applied.
Comment: He made reference to being "shot" down at the county jail and that he
didn't want any more of that.

Description:
Officers were dispatched to a call with a man holding his wife in a bathroom with a knife against her will. Officers
confronted man who was in the doorway of the bathroom. The wife was in the bathroom immediately
behind the suspect. The suspect was holding a large butcher-type knife. Suspect made several threats about
killing himself and that he was positive for hepatitis C.Officers ordered the man to drop the knife. He brought the
knife to his own throat. Officers deployed the M26 Air Taser, striking the man in the left collar bone and the back
of the left index finger (his hand was in the stomach area). The suspect was immediately incapacitated and fell
backwards, dropping the knife on the floor. He was secured by officers and transported to the hospital by
ambulance to remove the barbs imbedded in his collar bone and index finger.
Comment: "Thanks. Probably saved several officers counseling and lots of civil attorney's bills." Also, "One
(1) full cycle. (Coincidentally, on the way in to the house, they saw that the batteries on this unit
were almost gone, although still registering, and it still knocked the dog turds out of him!) He went
down between the toilet and the lavatory and did a major dying chicken. The officers on the scene
were convinced by the way this guy was acting that they would have had to shoot him. There was
also a major risk of hitting the wife had they had to fire on him."

bedroom. It was necessary to activate the M26 again 5 times as the would not comply with the officer's cuffing
instructions after each cycle. The M26 finally got the suspect to comply after he tied kicking officers and use his
hands defensively. Later, during interviews, detective learned that the subject had communicated that he was not
going to be taken alive back to jail and that he would kill whoever got in his way. The subject was taken into
custody without further incident.
Comment: The M26 "saved the life of officer and suspect."

not comply to any verbal commands. The M26 gave us the ability to take control over the subject
even though it had to be activated 6 total times. With out the M26 there may have been more
injuries to officers or suspect."

Description:
At 1006 hrs 2/28/01, officers were dispatched to domestic disturbance call. When contacted, a male ran and
grabbed a female by her throat with a knife in his other hand. Officer advised dispatch for assistance. The officer
pointed his duty weapon at the suspect and the subject did not comply with orders to drop the knife. At this time,
the suspect put the female hostage on her back and he sat down on her chest with the knife pressed on her neck
with his hands also around her neck. Backup officers arrived and verbal commands were still ignored by the
subject. There was a moderate amount of blood on the suspect's hands. The suspect began to get agitated that
the officers shined their flashlights on him. The suspect pressed the knife further into the throat of the hostage
and the flashlights were turned off. The suspect requested officers to backoff and stated that the knife was stuck
to his thumb. Suspect continued to ignore verbal commands. A captain arrived with a M26 who began to shine
the lights into the suspect's eyes. The suspect yelled, "Get back, no lights!" Lethal cover was present with a clear
shot and an officer with a M26 had a clear shot as well. The captain advised the suspect he would not and then
shined the flashlight into the subject's eyes. The suspect became agitated. The suspect was advised that the
flashlight was needed for officers to see and the captain began to establish dialogue. The next instance, an officer
fired a M26 at the subject. One probe hit the suspect in the chest. The suspect fell backwards off of the hostage
on to his stomach while the female yelled that she had been shocked. The captain realized that one probe hit the
suspect in the chest and the other hit the hostage's left hand. The captain fired a secondary shot at the suspect as
he fell away from the victim. These probes hit the subject in the back. The secondary shot was to control the
suspect in the event the primary probes had been torn away or were still connected to the victim. Another officer
placed the suspect into custody. Upon connecting the hostage, an officer observed a steak knife lying on the
ground. Photographs were taken.
Comment: "That was a close one. The TASER gave us a great option without having to use deadly force."
Analysis: Excellent tactical use of distraction with the flashlight, establishing lethal cover and having
a second M26 on scene for a followup shot.

Description:
Two officers were trying to serve arrest warrants on a subject. They observed a subject, the wanted person, get
up and run down a hallway when they knocked on the door of the home. The mother answered the door and
claimed her son did not live there, but allowed a search. There were 5 other adult family members in the home at
the time. Officers searched a bedroom containing a trundle day bed in it and noticed that the bottom portion of the
bed was pulled out slightly. They looked under the bed and saw a foot of the wanted subject. Officers ordered
the subject out. He did not comply. Officers feared family members would get involved if the incident turned
physical. Rather than risk injury to themselves and the subject by trying to pull him out from his awkward hiding
place; an officer leaned under the bed and sparked the TASER. The subject yelled, "What the hell is that!" and
promptly scrambled out from underneath the bed. He was taken into custody without further incident.

Please disregard previous use report submitted. This was an M26 deployment not a 34000. During a drug
investigation a subject had been patted down for weapons and was seated on a bed stood up abruptly and started
fighting with officers. Officers using repeated verbal commands and PPCT techniques continued to struggle with
the subject. When M26 officer arrived a juvenile male told me "he tried to grab his gun." I went inside and found
officers still struggling with the subject. I advised him to stop resisting or I would use a Taser on him. He replied
"fuck you!" and tried to stand. At that time I deployed the Taser. The darts hit the subject in the back and
activated. The subject lay still for several seconds. He was able to pull one of the darts out but it stuck to his
clothing. I advised the subject not to move or he would be stunned again. The subject calmed down. At times the
subject would become uncooperative until told he would be hit with the taser again. He would then start to
cooperate.
Comment: He stated it was not that bad.

restraints at hospital due to violent actions. Suspect tried to swallow a rubber tourniquet that had been placed
on his arm by the nurse. The stun feature of the Taser was used to distract and control the suspect so that the
rubber tourniquet could be removed from his mouth. This was a successful application as this situation possessed
an immediate choking treat to the suspect.

Officers responding to an unrelated call observe two males fighting in the street. Officers contacted both parties
and the suspect in this incident became aggressive with officers. Officers observed suspect bleeding from a
wound above his eye were concerned about blood born exposure and the suspects combative nature. Officers felt
that the suspect might be under the influence of PCP due to objective symptoms he was displaying. Later it was
determined he was only extremely intoxicated. Subject was verbally abusive and advanced towards an Officer at
which time the M26 was deployed from about 8 feet away to the back of the suspect. Upon impact the effect was
immediate and suspect went down. Deploying officer let the taser cycle a full 5-seconds. Suspect complied with all

Ex-boyfriend enters the girlfriend's house and police are called. When confronted by officers the suspect refuses
to comply to orders. The taser is used from the front initially and the suspect falls. Other officers cannot get to the
suspect to arrest. A second application is started but stopped as one officer was receiving the charge as well. A
second set of darts was used as the wires broke on the first. Again, the taser worked but officers could not get the
suspect handcuffed. A physical fight ensued and a third set of darts was deployed in the lower back. The taser
worked but officers could not contain the suspect. A fourth set was deployed and the suspect was taken into
custody. All applications worked and except for the second deployment, all were for the full 5 seconds. Due to
the confining spaces and objects in the area officers could not get to the suspect quickly enough to handcuff
initially. The fight lasted about 5-6 minutes.
Comment: Screamed on the first deployment and ouch on the third.

Description:
A mentally disturbed, muscularly built, male was arrested for domestic violence assault. The suspect was very
combative upon initial contact and was forcibly taken into custody by the initial responding units. During the
initial arrest, one officer suffered an injured wrist and was sent to the city doctor for x-rays.The suspect was
eventually transported to the police station where he was placed in a holding cell to be processed for booking into
the county jail. While waiting to be processed, the suspect became more and more agitated. He began to pound
on the cement walls and kick the steel cell door. Numerous attempts were made to calm the suspect, however, our
efforts proved negative. The suspect continued this behavior while shouting his intent to kick all of our asses.
Based on the subject's behavior and his previous assault on officers, the M26 was deployed to the holding facility.
The decision was made to seek verbal compliance from the suspect before entering the cell to handcuff the
suspect for transport. The suspect was instructed to turn around and kneel on the floor. These commands were
repeated three times. The suspect ignored our commands, offered a challenge to enter the cell and positioned
himself into a fighting stance. The door was opened and the M26 was fired. The effect of the M26 was immediate.
The suspect stiffened like a board and his right leg buckled. He fell to the ground unable to offer any resistance.
Officers quickly closed and took the suspect back into
custody. He was transported to county jail while offering no further problems. On a side note, one of our officers
received a shocking reminder not to kneel on the guide wires while the M26 is running.
Comment: The suspect stated that being tasered was the most painful experience of
his life. He stated, "I will do anything you say, please, please don't do
that again."

Officers located a burglary suspect that was also wanted as a fugitive from probation and parole. The suspect fled
from the officers on foot as they attempted to approach him and arrest him. Officers set up a perimeter and the
suspect was contained within a four block area. Officers pursued the suspect and he jumped several chain fences
into private residences. The suspect jumped into one yard and officer approached him. The officer aimed M26 at
suspect and ordered him to stop running and get onto the ground. Suspect ignored the officers commands and
attempted to jump another fence. M26 was deployed and both darts impacted in suspect's clothing. The top dart
entered center mass in the suspect's thick shirt. The bottom dart impacted directly into the thick crotch area of
suspect's blue jeans. Neither dart penetrated the skin. The suspect was not affected by charge. The suspect's
shirt was flared out away from his body and the top dart did not get close enough to the suspect's skin to cause
the arch. Suspect did stop resisting and comply after the M26 air taser was deployed.

Description:
This incident is on your web site video. The male was on a cocaine binge and attempted to strangle his girlfriend.
When the first officers on scene arrived he approached them with two large butcher knives. He eventually
retreated to his residence, where he climbed through a sky light and onto the roof. Once on the roof, he proceeded
to dismantle the brick chimneys and throw the bricks at officers on the suite. ERT was activated and negotiations
were attempted, but failed. When the suspect passed out ERT members climbed the roof by ladder and when the
knives were removed from the suspect's hands, he woke up. M26 was fired from 5 feet away, one dart hitting
exposed skin, the other going through his jeans. Five second cycle, during which time the operator assisted in
applying flex cuffs.
Comment: No

Dispatched to assist officers. Upon arrival heard defendant yelling and cussing at officers. Defendant was asked
several times by myself and other
officers to lower her voice. She refused and attempted to close the door on an officer. After her husband and son
were arrested on other charges the defendant appeared to comply and we let her shut the door. The
defendant then came out of the residence cursing me and raising her voice causing neighbors to come outside. I
instructed her to lower voice because she was waking the neighbors. At this point she was acting disorderly. The
defendant was informed she was under arrests and an officer rabbed her left arm. She pulled away from officers
and ran into the house. When contact was made with defendant she became very combative and started swinging
at this officer. Officer attempted to handcuff her and she still resisted and grabbed her 4-year old daughter.

While working in the booking room I heard a loud banging and yelling coming from the women's holding cell. I
went to talk to the subject that was in the cell. I advised her that she was to hold down the yelling and that she
was not going to be banging on the cell door or windows. I had to repeat this several times. At this time the
subject jumped up from the bench at me in an aggressive manner. I attempted to administer one 5-second burst
from the M26 taser in the stun gun mode. The subject was jumping around and only brief contact was made. She
then crouched on the bench and
there was no further incidence.

arrival the suspect had barracaded herself in her bedroom. She stated she had a gun and told us to shoot her.
After, it was determined she did not have a gun and wanted suicide by the police. We then made entry of the
bedroom at which time the suspect resisted by lying
on the bed face first and not showing her hands. The suspect refused to release her arms from beneath her at
which time I administered two five second bursts from the taser causing the suspect to release her arms and
submit to arrest. The taser was used in touch fashion to the back of the suspects back between the shoulder

Description:
Officer responded in reference to a disturbance in progress. At det/sgt arrived as back-up. Officers were met at the
door by the defendant who had a strong odor of alcohol about his person. The wife was inside crying and
extremely upset. An officer attempted to seperate the wife from the defendant and the husband kept interrupting
and telling us this was his house. After several commands by both officers to calm down and talk to us the
defendant refused. The husband kept trying to open a bathroom door to let a large dog out. After instructing the
defendant several times to leave the door closed he still ignored us and tried to push det/sgt out of his way. At
this time the det/sgt was attempting to detain the defendant who was resisting by pulling away and trying to lock
his arms to avoid being handcuffed. Officer then took M26 out and touched it to the back of the defendant and
immediatly incapacitated him by dropping him to his knees. The officer used a three second hit. The defendant
was lifted up by officers and the defendant began to resist again. Another 3-second hit was used and this time he
complied and was handcuffed without further incident.

Upon arrival contact was made with the defendant and he appeared to be intoxicated and had an injury to his right
hand and was bleeding. A warrent check of defendant revealed a Warrant for his arrest. At first he resisted by
failing to obey commands but eventually complied. Defendant was placed in patrol vehicle and began kicking the
door. Defendant was told to stop and he complied. Fire rescue responded to check defendant's hand. He was
removed from car to allow fire rescue to treat him. Defendant then refused to lean over the trunk of patrol car to
allow fire rescue to examine his hand. Defendant was forced down and he continued to resist physically and
verbally. Defendant was told numerous times and he failed to comply. Due to his willful refusal to comply with
our lawful requests, and the possibility of the blood from his hand being transferred to deputies and paramedics a
touch taze was performed for approx. three seconds. Once applied defendant complied with all requests.

subject ran with knife and barricaded himself in a downstairs room. Subject refused to come out or drop the knife.
A stand off ensued for approx. 2 hours. Subject threatened to use the knife against officers or throw it at them.
The decision was made to enter basement with multiple officers and subdue subject with M26. Three officers went
into the room. A sgt. ordered subject to drop the knife he was holding to his throat, as subject appeared to start
applying pressure to his throat, and move towards the back of the room, the sgt. deployed the M26. The subject
fell to the floor and continued to hold the knife. A second discharge was neccessary and subject immediately
complied. Subject was struck with only one probe slightly under the right arm and penatrated clothing only. The
second probe missed and went behind him. The wires wrapped around his lower legs, causing a successful
deployment.

wanted to. I do not believe he could have, since he was completelely

DETAILS
Description:
Officer contacted a suspect who had barricaded himself in the bathroom and negotions were on going in an
attempt to get him out. After about 30 min. the suspect refused to exit the bathroom. Several noises could be
heard coming from the bathroom. The suspect would not comminucate with deputies. An attempt was made to
force open the bathroom door but the suspect forced his body against the door to prevent opening it. At that
time, a sgt arrived on scene. Three officers then pushed the door open 4 inches with the subjects back against it.
An officer observed the subject's left knee extending past the edge of the door. A M26 touch stun was applied to
the subject's knee causing him to leave the doorway. Officers then gained entry and saw the subject standing in
the bathtub smoking crack cocaine. The subject's back was to us and he would not comply with orders to go to
the ground. The M26 touch stun was applied again to the subject again causing him to stop smoking. The
subject turned around at which time a deputy sprayed the subject with O.C. Spray. The spray had no effect and
the subject broke loose and ran into adjoining bedroom. At that time, an officer inserted a 21 foot air cartridge into
the M26 and went to a door leading from the hallway to the bedroom. Subject ran to lock the door where the M26
shooter was at. At this time the sgt forced his way into the bedroom through the bathroom door. The subject still
refused orders to go to the ground even though he was at gun point. At that time, the M26 laser sight was placed
on the suspect's chest and was fired. The top dart hit the subject just inside his right breast area and the bottom
dart hit the subject at the end of his penis. The subject immediatly went to his back on the bed behind him. An
attempt to sweep the parts were made by the subject but he could not move. After the 5-second blast the subject
was calm and compliant. The top dart was removed at the scene and the second dart was removed at medical. The
subject was violent and immune to pain and the effects of O.C. spray due to the effects of crack cocaine he was
also bleeding from his head and face (Not caused by the taser) which added further hazards to the officers. The
use of the taser prevented further injury to the subject or officers in a situation where a fight would have insued.
Comment: Please don't shoot me again.
Analysis: Penis shot but not injury.

Description:
While driving southbound around 2005 hours an off duty officer noticed a white male running out of hardware.
About a second later, the officer noticed the owner of the store chasing after the male. Officer called dispatch and
asked them if a retail theft had been reported at the hardware store. Dispatch said, "no", and the officer replied,
"well, you will." Officer made a U-turn and drove a couple streets north of the suspect and parked on the side of
the roadway. Officer grabbed a police radio, handcuff and a M26 taser and exited the vehicle. The officer walked
through the parking lot of Taco Bell and noticed the suspect and owner running toward the officer. When the
suspect got about 25 feet away, the officer identified himself, aimed the taser at his chest and ordered him to the
ground. Th suspect had the most amazing look on his face, looked as if the officer was going to hit his face with a
shovel. He then began to flail his arms as if he was doing the back stroke. The suspect was told to stop, but did
not get on the ground. The officer told him a second time to get on the ground and he refused. The officer shot
him just below the chest. He curled up and fell to the ground screaming. After the 5-second burst, the officer told
him to put his arms out to his side. He refused and the officer gave him another 5-second burst. About half way
through, he tried to put his left arm out to his side but was unable to move it more than about six inches to a foot.
However, when the burst finished, he put both arms out. The officer asked him if he was finished or if he wanted
"round three." He said he was finished. The officer removed several items that he had stolen and they were
returned to the owner. The owner said he was going to catch him but didn't know what he would have done after
that. Several customers in the Taco Bell were amazed by the demonstration. The probes were removed and the
suspect was transported to the Brevard County Jail.
Comment: "It hurt like hell and I never want to experience that again."

While pursuing the suspect on foot the M26 was activated from behind. The suspect immediately fell to the
ground. As he rolled on the ground one wire was broken. A second cartridge was deployed and the suspect was
taken into custody. The use of the M26 during the foot pursuit, cut the pursuit short and effectively limited the
potential injury to the officer and the suspect.

Officers responded to a suspcious persons call. Upon arrival officers attempt to pat the suspect down. The
suspect turns on officers and takes a defensive posture. The M26 is deployed but only one dart hits the suspect.
The touch backup is used and the suspect is taken into custody. At the station during the booking process the
suspect again becomes combative and the taser is deployed again. This time both darts hit the suspect. The
suspect then becomes compliant.

Description:
During an outdoor concert a white male approched one of our deputies and advised him that he had taken LSD
and that he felt like he was going to die. EMS was notified and arrived at the scene. The suspect appeared to be
hallucinating and began to resist the paramedics and deputies. The suspects heart rate was 170 beats per minute
and EMS advised that he needed to be
transported to the hospital. After several attempts were made to talk the subject into the ambulance, it was
apparent that he was not going to cooperate. Shortly after receiving a call for assistance, I arrived at the
scene with the M26. The subject began to physically resist the officers. I pointed the taser at the subject's chest.
He looked at the red dot from the laser then back at me and stated "Go ahead and shoot me!" Subject was shot in
the chest & he fell to the ground. Apparently, one probe did not penetrate his jacket. When his jacket swung
away from his chest, he sprang to his feet and began running. I pulled the trigger again to give the
subject another five second hit. The probe in his jacket was not making contact with his skin and the current was
coming back to the taser. The subject was tackled by an officer and violently resisted. I used the taser as a touch
stun device in order to gain compliance. Handcuffs were applied and the subject was immediately transported to
the hospital. It was determined that he had taken Ectascy and LSD. When he came down from his "high", he
asked me what we shot him with. I informed him that we had used an Advanced Taser which is a less-lethal
device, to gain compliance due to him resisitng the officers and paramedics. I advised him that he would not suffer
any after-effects. He apologized for the incident and stated that he did not normally act the way he did and that
the drugs were making him hallucinate. He thanked us for not hurting him. The only injury he received was from
the fall (he was complaining about his shoulder hurting). No officer or paramedic was injured during this incident.
Comment: I asked the subject if the taser was effective, he stated "That thing
really hurts, I didn't know what I had been shot with".

Description:
Suicidal 17-yr-old male, approximately 250 lbs, armed with knife. While holding the knife-blade to his own throat,
subject refused to listen to reason or cooperate by releasing the knife. Using a vehicle as cover, Taser was
deployed from approximately 15 feet. Probes struck subject in lower chest and near left knee, immediately dropping
subject to ground. Knife was released from his hand, landing several feet away and out of reach. Subject taken
into custody before he could regain his composure. Darts removed from thick outer clothing, with no puncture
wounds to skin evident.
Comment: Subject didn't believe Taser had any effect, and believed he was fell to
the ground after being tripped by unknown object. He had no recollection of electric current.
Analysis: Interesting case: M26 deployed from cover, excellent success versus knive and subject not
realizing what happened.

Subject dropped off at hospital by friend, for possible drug overdose. Subject refused to give up arsenal of
hatchet, hammer, and two ice-picks. Wandered through hospital when confronted by security, immediately
threatening to bury ice-pick into security officer's head. Subject added he is quite proficient at throwing darts and
axes. Subject soon convinced into room alone, where he was locked inside. Responding deputies attempted
verbal confrontation from outside room, and subject refused to drop weapons, adding he would throw hatchet into
the head of whoever opened the door. TASER deployed from behind door, however to maintain contact with
subject, door was opened further. As subject was struck with probes, he released the hatchet towards door
narrowly missing deputies and bouncing off the floor brushing leg of a deputy. Subject dropped to floor, however
he refused to comply after initial application, and reached out to grab the hammer. Second application with probes
still in place again incapacitated subject who was then successfully detained.

Subject was holding a butcher knife to his chest and was lying on his bed with the covers over his body up to his
chest. He said he had to get up to pee. As he walked toward the bathroom with the knife to his chest, the
Taser was deployed. It worked like a charm. I'm a hostage negotiator and I had never seen this weapon used. I'm
sold on it. I plan on requesting to be
trained to carry one in my vehicle.
Comment: He said, "that was not necessary."

The suspect was stopped for a traffic violation and found to be under the influence of alcohol. He was also
driving without a driver's license. When the officer advised him he was under arrest, he shoved the officer and
fled on foot. After approximately a 100 yard pursuit the officer drew and deployed the M26 Taser. The suspect
was immediately incapacitated and handcuffed by the officer without further incident. One probe penetrated the
skin through bib overhalls, the other probe penetrated clothing only.
Comment: The suspect first stated that he believed the officer had shot him with a
real gun. The suspect was immediately incapacitated and screamed "I quit, I
quit several times." After being handcuffed and placed in the patrol car the suspect repeatedly
asked the officer "what was that thing, what was
that thing."

Subject was arrested for breach of the peace and public intoxication. The subject, who was moderately intoxicated,
refused to comply with verbal direction and was resistant to handcuffing. He locked his hands together in an
effort to prevent the officers from placing the handcuffs on his wrists. The subject was warned that if he failed to
stop his resistance, the Taser would be used. He failed to comply and two full 5 second cycles
were administered in the touch stun mode at which point the subject finally allowed himself to be handcuffed.
Comment: The subject was interviewed the following day when sober and provided the following comments: *
"... it felt like sticking my finger in a light socket." * "I'm not sore at all this morning where he
Tasered (sic) me. I think its a far better method than getting hit with a baton. There's no bruises in
the morning which I've had before. I prefer the Taser method."

Description:
Subject was arrested for breach mischief (property damage) when he entered a flower & gift shop and began
throwing items to the floor. He was arrested without incident and taken out to the awaiting police vehicle. He
became agitated and refused to enter the vehicle. When the lone officer attempted to "steer" the subject into the
vehicle, the subject became highly resistant and then combative toward the officer. A second officer who was
equipped with a Taser and on bike patrol, arrived on scene and called for his fellow officer to break contact with
the subject. The officer and the subject had been slammed up against a plate glass window and were close to
breaking through if the struggle continued. The Taser was armed and the laser pointed at the subject's now bare
chest (his shirt had been ripped off in the struggle). The subject did not attempt to flee but rather turned toward
the bike officer and moved into a combative stance. The Taser Challenge was issued, "Stand still or you will be hit
with 50,000 volts of electricity." The subject froze in place and then, when ordered to get on the ground,
voluntarily complied with that order. He was taken into custody and lodged in police cell without further incident.
Comment: The subject calmed down after being alone in cells for a short time. He
did not appear to be under the influence of any legal or controlled
substance. He stated that he was experiencing relationship problems that
resulted in a high level of personal stress. He further indicated that he
was aware of what the Taser was and immediately knew what was being pointed at him. He stated,
"I knew what it (the Taser) was - from TV... I knew what you meant when you said 50,000 volts."

An intoxicated male was located in a downtown alley. He was arrested and handcuffed. However, upon arriving at
the police vehicle, he grabbed onto the door and refused to let go. Verbal intervention and "soft" empty hand
techniques (joint manipulation, pressure points, etc.) were unsuccessful in getting the persistent subject to
relinquish his grip. The Taser was used
in the touch stun mode and immediately resulted in compliance from the subject. He was placed in the police
vehicle and transported to police cells without further incident.

officers attempted to arrest her. She attempted to "hide" her arms and then became combative (directing force
against the officers). When the officers attempted control her and place the hand cuffs on her wrists, she
pulled away in an actively resistant manner. The Taser was used in the Touch Stun mode to facilitate handcuffing

Description:
Police officers noted an individual with outstanding arrest warrants leaving a building believed to be a source of
crack cocaine. The subject departed the location on a bicycle and was approached by police in a marked police
vehicle. The suspect failed to comply with numerous verbal commands to stop and a relatively "low speed"
pursuit followed. The suspect crashed about 1/2 mile later when he struck a curb. He attempted to flee on foot but
was cornered by two police officers. The subject attempted to use his bike as a shield or weapon against the
officers as they approached. The
Taser Challenge was given at which point the bike was dropped. The subject then raised both fists. The Taser
was fired and the suspect fell to the ground. He was told to remain on the ground and spread out his arms. He
began to push himself off the ground and a second cycle was adminsitered. He then complied with the officer's
commands. The upper probe penetrated
his shirt and hung on his clothing. The lower probe struck near the zipper of this pants, again not penetrating the
skin. A spread diistance of approximately 20 inches was recorded.
Comment: The subject stated that he did not know what was happening to him when Tasered and found it very
effective. He found the recovery time very fast ("... much better than pepper spray.") He further
stated that it would be the last time he ran from the police.

Description:
Police were called to a 18 story apartment after a security guard was assaulted (kicked) by one of the apartment's
residents. The suspect then returned to his 11th floor apartment and began throwing glass bottles from
the balcony. The police located the subject in his apartment and began to question him on the events. The subject
demonstrated severe mood swings
and was uncooperative with the officers. On several occasions he would stand up and move toward the officers
when he had been instructed to remain
seated. As the subject's level of hostility increased, the Taser Operator drew the M26, however, before he could
deliver the Taser Challenge, the subject abruptly got up from his chair and moved toward the officer in an
aggressive and combative manner. The Taser was fired and the subject fell to the ground as a result of the current.
A full 5 second cycle was completed. The subject state, "... what, what the fuck was that?" The
subject was then advised that he had been hit with 50,000 volts of electricity and if he did not comply with police
direction he would be hit again with the current. The subject replied, "no no that's okay." The
subject's behavior then changed from combative to apologetic. He was transported to hospital for probe removal
without incident.

Description:
Subject was arrested for public intoxication after passing out in a fast food establishment. The subject refused to
comply with the officer's requests to stand up and repeatedly told the officer to, "Fuck off." The subject was
physically controlled and escorted to the rear of the police vehicle. Upon arriving at the cellblock processing area,
the officer opened the rear of the police vehicle and instructed the subject to exit. However, the subject refused
and when the officer attempted to reach in and assist the subject by pulling him out, the subject physically
resisted these efforts. The officer believed that he risked being kicked if he entered any further into the vehicle as
the subject was now laying on his back with his feet pointing at the officer. The Taser was drawn and shown to
the subject. He was instructed that if he failed to cease resisting and exit the car, the Taser would be used. The
subject failed to comply, a short touch stun was administered to the subject's buttocks when the
opportunity presented itself. The subject sat straight up and looked around in a confused manner. He
immediately exited the vehicle and stared at the seat he was just sitting on as if it had bitten him. Although
somewhat confused, the subject was now compliant and was processed without further incident.

Description:
A suicidal male with a butcher knife in the residence. The situation with the subject was deteriorating. The plan
was to enter the residence from the rear with a barracade and use the TASER. While approaching the residence,
the male came out onto the front deck yelling and screaming. The male saw us as we were approaching the
residence. The male turned and began to run through the front door of the residence. I ran at the male and
deployed the TASER at approximately 18 to 20 feet. As the male went inside, I heard him yell as if the TASER
made contact. The TASER cycled for 5 seconds. As I was running to the front door, I began to feel the lines
being pulled. Upon entering the residence, I found the male lying on the floor in the kitchen. The kitchen door
was blocking the view of male's face, arms, and hands. Male was advised several times to show his hands with no
luck. I activated the taser for another 5 second cycle. No reaction from the male. At that time I believed contact
may have been broken. I reloaded the TASER with a second cartridge. I advised the male again to show his hands
with no results. Taser was activated with a 2 probe hit for 5 seconds. The subject became compliant and showed
us his hands. The subject was taken into custody without further incident. The knife was found underneath the
male's leg. The second probe from first cartridge was found unattached underneath the subject.

Description:
Police officers responded to a complaint of a domestic dispute and attempted to arrest the subject for assault. The
subject had a previous criminal record and was known to be a police hater. Subject refused to comply with verbal
direction when placed under arrest and took a combative stance when facing the police officers. The TASER
warning was given, but the subject refused to
comply. The TASER was fired and a full cycle was administered. The subject did not fall to the ground but was
obviously incapacitated. His arms appeared as if he was doing bicep curls and his body was vibrating. The TASER
was cycled again and the arresting officer moved in and swept the subjects legs out from under him and was
placed in handcuffs. The arresting officer believed the TASER was effective in controlling the subject who
regularly is encountered by the police and who is frequently violent in those encounters.

Description:
Suspect arrested for public intoxication and transported back to cells. While in the rear of the vehicle, the subject
became very aggressive and hostile. He began to talk about the time he had spent "in the pen" (a
federal prison). He informed the arresting office that upon arriving at the police station he would "kick your ass!"
The subject was also smiling and making several physical gestures with his arms indicating that he was
getting ready to fight. The arresting officer requested that a Taser equipped officer meet him in the secure bay of
the police station. The Taser officer arrived and drew the Taser from the holster and showed it to the subject while
he remained seated in the rear of the police car. A brief
overview of the Taser and its capabilities was given to the subject. Furthermore, it was explained that if the
subject became combative he would be shocked with the Taser current. The subject then became completely
cooperative throughout the booking process. He entered his cell without any problems and without any
threatening physical action. It is believed that the presence of the Taser was sufficient to prevent a physical
altercation with this subject.

Subject arrested for uttering threats and criminal harassment (stalking). While being transported to police cells he
became very hostile. He challenged the members verbally and kicked the interior of the doors of the police vehicle.
Upon arriving at cells the subject was instructed to exit the vehicle but he refused. The M26 was retrieved and the
suspect then complied with verbal demands to exit the vehicle. The suspect refused to cooperate during the
bookin process (voluntary turning over of article of clothing, remaining seated for photograph, etc.) The suspect
then stood rigid and refused to comply with the officers lawful demands. The taser was again produced and the
subject was advised that if he continued his physical resistance current would be applied. He responded - "go
ahead". The taser was used in the touch stun mode and applied to the left chest area near the armpit of the
subjects bare skin. The subject did not appear to be affected by the current as he continued to stand his ground.
However, the officer did notice that the muscles around the taser could be seen to pulsate. The accused was then
again instructed to sit or be given another exposure to the taser. He again refused. On this occasion the taser was
applied to his right thigh. Again, the suspect showed no reaction to the current. At this point the officer resecured
the taser and used alternate methods in an attempt to lodge the suspect in the cell. OC spray was used and again
appeared to have no affect. Ultimately, the subject was controlled through physical techniques.

Description:
The subject was an occupant of a motor vehicle checked during a traffic stop. The Police Officer noted drug
paraphernalia in the vehicle and formed the opinion that the subject was under the influence of a narcotic. The
subject then provided a false name to the Officer. As the Officer was conducting her investigation the suspect
removed a quantity of methamphetamine from his pants pocket and attempted to swallow it. The
officer used physical force in an attempt to prevent the subject from swallowing the substance. The subject
refused to spit out his drugs. The Taser was produced and shown to the suspect. The subject was further
advised that if he did not spit out the drugs he would be hit with the Taser current. The subject responded "I don't
want to be hit with that". He immediately spit out approximately 3 grams of methamphetamine. Had the
Taser not been available the subject may have swallowed the drugs resulting in a possible fatal outcome or the
police officer would have been required to use greater force in an effort to get the suspect to spit out the drugs. In
this case, the police objective of preventing a possible overdose and securing the evidence was achieved in a
method that was less injurious than the other options available in the absence of the Taser.

Police attended a local hospital to assist the security guards and healthcare workers with a person classified as
suffering from delusional paranoia. The subject was punching walls of the room and would not comply with the
commands made by healthcare workers or security staff. He had been given medication prior to Police arrival with
no apparent effect. Police, security and a healthcare worker entered the room in which the suspect
was punching the walls and screaming. Attempts by the healthcare worker to calm the subject were unsuccessful
and the subject began swearing at the worker. The subject began to moved towards the healthcare worker at which
time the Taser operator had positioned himself to get a clear line of fire to the subject if required. The Taser was
fired without warning as the officer believed that an assault of the healthcare worker was about to take place. The
subject froze in place but did not fall to the ground. He was restrained by the police officers and the security
guards and one probe was dislodged in this process. However, the subject was now cooperative for a short time.
When the officers attempted to handcuff the subject he resisted their attempts at which point the Taser was used
in the touch stun mode. The subject once again became cooperative.
Comment: After the fact, the subject stated that he felt pain and a lack of movement
when struck by the current of the Taser.

Description:
While on patrol, an officer observed an altercation between the drivers of two vehicles in what appeared to be a
case of roadrage. The driver of one vehicle exited his vehicle with a baseball bat and approached the other vehicle.
It was very clear that he was agitated and aggressive. As the officer approached in his police vehicle he
positioned the vehicle as a shield between himself and the suspect. He then instructed the subject to drop the
baseball bat. This command was complied with by the suspect who was also wearing a knife sheathed on his belt.
It was later learned that this individual was an associate of a local motorcycle gang. The subject was arrested for
possession of a weapon but he resisted the officer stating that he would not get into the police car. The officer
drew the taser and instructed the subject that if he failed to comply with the officers
instructions the taser would be used. The subject was angered and screamed something to the effect "you're just
itching to use that thing aren't you?" The officer replied - "Why, yes I am." The subject then became
cooperative and followed the officers directions.

Description:
Subject was arrested for assault following a domestic dispute. He was resistant when the officers attempted to
handcuff him prior to transport. One cuff was placed on but the resistance of the subject made completing
the handcuffing difficult. The taser was produced and the taser warning given but the subject remained
uncooperative. After two exposures to the touch stun the subject became cooperative. Once again, in police cells
the subject became agitated while being booked in. His body language and posture indicated that he was about to
assault one of the officers. At one point he again refused to comply with the officers requests during the
search procedure. He was physically resistant to their efforts and he was again touch stunned at which point he
became coooperative.
Comment: "I don't want you to use that again."

Description:
Subject was arrested for causing a disturbance by fighting. He was transported back to police cells. Upon exiting
the police vehicle he became extremely agitated and aggressive. He headed directly toward one of the
police officers in a combative posture while yelling. At this point, the Taser was used in the touch stun mode and
the subject seized his attack. A short time later he entered into another argument with another civilian in the cell
block area. He again was aggressive and appeared intent on getting into a physical altercation. He was again touch
stunned to prevent him moving toward any other person. At this point he remained verbally abusive to the other
prisoners and police but was cooperative in his actions. At one point he was given a command to place his hands
above his head for the booking in procedure. He responded - "whatever you want." It appears that
the use of the Taser was successful in helping the subject adjust his behavior so that no physical force was
required. Given the subjects apparent desire to fight, had the Taser not been present it is highly probable that a
physical altercation would have been imminent

Description:
This is another incident where the M26 was used on a vicious dog. The officer responded with Humane Officers
regarding two vicious Rottwieller dogs. While the Humane Officer was taking one of the dogs the second tried to
attack. The M26 was deployed at the dog and the darts struck the attacking dog. The dog did not fall to the
ground but instead ran away from the officers. The dog broke the wires and was never located again. The M26
may not have knocked the dog to the ground, but it was still successful as it stopped the attacking dog and
prevented injuries.

Subject with previous mental history and current alcohol ingestion "out of control" in parent's house. Parents
tried to restrain, called police. Subject demanded suicide by cop, verbally resistant to commands but not charging
at officers. With M26 as our cover from the rear, we attempted to restrain his wrists with three officers; subject
began to fight. We disengaged and deployed one cartridge, dropping him from his knees to his face. He did not
place his hands as directed and a second discharge was delivered. He was completely compliant from this point
on.
Comment: Oh yes. "What was that thing? Don't hurt me again. Why did you do that
to me? I'll be good, I won't fight, I love everybody. I'm really confused. I'm sorry for doing that. I
want my mommy."

DETAILS
Description:
Officers on routine patrol came upon the subject walking in the middle of the street completely nude. Officers
attempted verbal contact with the suspect, who responded with profanity. After the suspect attempted to enter a
vehicle by force, one officer pulled the patrol vehicle up to cover the subject's escape route. The subject screamed
profanities at the officer and punched the officer in the face. Another officer sprayed the
suspect with a chemical spray (blend) with little effect. The subject was eventually sprayed a total of three (3)
times with a chemical spray with little to no effect. Officer arrived on the scene with taser and immediately began
ordering the suspect to the ground. As the suspect advanced the officer, the officer fired the taser striking the
suspect with both darts in the chest. The taser caused to suspect to double over, but the subject was able to pull
the wires out of at least one probe. The officer immediately utilized a touch-stun which moved the suspect away
from the officer, but the suspect did not go to the ground. The suspect was eventually "swarmed" by officers.
One probe was found still in the suspect's chest. The second probe and wires were on the ground. It is believed
the suspect was under the influence of some type of drug, but the drug screen has not be made available, at this
time. There is audio/ video of the suspect prior to the M-26 deployment, but only audio of the actual deployment.

DETAILS
Description:
Officers responded to a purse snatching call. Upon their arriving they met the victim who advised that the subject
had forcefully taken her purse and fled in a car. Officers got a description of the car and began a search for the car.
One of the officers passed back at the location of the victim and observed the suspect vehicle parked in the
driveway. Upon officers exiting their patrol unit and confronting the suspect he refused to comply to any of their
orders. Officers called for backup and shortly after began to fight the suspect to get him in custody. Officers were
coding to the location and upon arrival we located the officers fighting with the suspect on the ground. I did not
use the M26 due to their being several officers on top of the suspect and they were able to cuff him. Upon their
picking the suspect off the ground he began to scream at officers telling them he wanted to kill them. At this time
it was clear the suspect was on narcotics and also I detected the odor of alcohol on his breath. I have personally
dealt with the suspect on several occasions and know he is a crack addict. The suspect was fighting officers all
the way to the unit where he was to be transported in and upon their trying to get him to go in the unit he
continued to fight them. I walked near them and put the laser on the suspect's chest advising him I had a stun gun
and if kept fighting I would shock him with 50,000 volts. This got the suspect even madder and he began
screaming at me to shock him. I advised him I would shock him if I had to and he still refused to get in the unit.
Several officers tried to push him into the unit and after their failing I advised them to get back. I removed the air
cartridge and put the M26 on the suspect's right thigh and advised him to get in the car or I would shock him. Still
he refused so again I ordered him to get in the car and as he continued to refuse I depressed the trigger as the unit
was firmly against his thigh and to my surprise I would like anyone who reads this to know I have total confidence
in the M26. Although the stun did not take the suspect down does not mean it does not work. I have been shot
with M26 using the air cartridge and am a true believer. If a situation comes up try to use the air cartridge to take
someone down and do not rely on the stun only. This suspect was one of the highest persons I have seen in a
very long time and I know if he would been shot with the cartridge he would have went down.
Comment: The suspect stated, "that ain't shit boy, hit with it again," then stated, "you better get some new
batteries."
Analysis: Subsequent input from user: "I can tell you he was cuffed and several officers couldn't get
him in the unit. When I began shouting at the officers to move back then told the subject I
would shock him, He calmed down, but began to holler at me to shock him. As I shocked
him on the leg he was totally focused on taking the shock. After the 5 second phase was
over I then went up to his chest area and he
leaned into the etaser before I shocked him. Once again he was totally focused on being
shocked.
After the second phase was complete the suspect told me I needed new batteries.
Another officer walked up and told the suspect to get in the car and he did without fighting.
Did the etaser work on the subject? I think so, he got in the car after without fighting…"

Description:
During a traffic stop the suspect fled on foot from Officers. The Taser was deployed and the suspect was shot in
the back. The suspect was dropped instantly, falling forward onto the ground. After the full five seconds the
suspect got up and started to run again. The Taser was activated again, and the suspect was dropped instantly.
After the second cycle the suspect surrendered.
Comment: At the hospital the suspect told officers he thought the taser was a handgun, and that is why he ran.
When the first shot hit him in the back he was convinced he had been shot with a bullet. He got up
to run again because he thought he was going to be killed by the officers.

Deputies were making contact with an individual at a local trailer park in reference to a domestic disturbance case.
Three additional subjects were with the suspect. The suspect gave a fictitious name. During the process of
confirming his identity the suspect drew a pistol and pointed at the face of a nearby deputy. Suspect pulled the
trigger but the weapon did not fire. Suspect began to cycle the slide of the weapon and ran further into the trailer
park. Suspect fired at the pursuing officers. When the suspect was located the M26 (laser) and firearms were used
to take down the suspect without incident. A Deputy only sustained minor injuries while avoiding the pointed
weapon at the start of the incident.

Description:
Following a traffic stop by a single Officer, two suspects in the vehicle ignored commands and attempted to go
into a mobile home. A 2nd Officer arrived and both Officers attempted to use low-level techniques (joint
techniques) on the driver to get him to the police vehicles. Four other subjects were standing around the Officers,
with three of them being verbally hostile. The driver would not comply and made statements that the Officers
could not subdue him. The second subject (with a known history of assaults, including fist assaults, on Officers)
was verbally threatening the Officers and the Officers believed he was looking for an opening to assault the
Officers. This second subject was trying to further entice the driver to resist, at one point saying "Let's kick their
asses, let's kick their asses.". This second subject was kept at bay with OC-10 by the Officers while they still tried
to subdue the driver. At one point, the driver grabbed a truck and wouldn't move, but stopped most resistance.
While one Officer kept partial control of him, second Officer retrieved a Taser from his car, which was within 10
feet. An arc display was shown to both subjects and the driver, who was under arrest, was told to stop resisting
or he would receive a Taser application. He continued to resist (even more after seeing the arc). The first touch
stun application was to the side while the driver was up against the trunk of a car and it didn't appear to have a
dramatic affect (possibly because of clothing issues). The second application was to the rear shoulder/neck area
and it immediately stopped all resistance and the suspect was handcuffed. During this struggle, the second
subject started to approach and a laser application on his chest caused him to back up. The fluid and complicated
nature of this contact caused the Officers to rule out OC-10 spray application. They believed that if they had used
it on either subject, the other one would have had an opening to attempt to assault the Officers, who would have
been affected at least somewhat by the "area" spray of the OC-10. The Officers believed the Taser application
ended the situation without anyone getting hurt (Both suspects were arrested).
Comment: The second suspect stated "He's shocking my home-boy" while the incident occurred. The driver
said "That first one was ok." (referring to the touch to the side) "But that second one wasn't cool."
(referring to the effective touch stun to the rear shoulder/neck area. The suspect calmed down quite
a bit when he was advised that both of the Officers involved had also received an application of the
Taser, during training. The suspect did not want any medical evaluation but was evaluated, as per
our department policy.

I don't know if you are tracking animal usage: The victim was an extremely aggressive Pitbull. The dog was hit by 2
probes from first Taser. The rear quarters were effectivly immobilized, but the dog was able to run using
it's front legs. Probes struck near the rib cage and rear of the dog. The dog was able to go beyond the 21 feet of
wire despite the officer running after the animal, thus severing the connection. A second cartridge was
fired from a second Taser with one probe penetrating and the second missing, but there was some effect on the
animal. Eventually a tranquilizer was used to contain the animal. The Taser had some effect by reducing the
aggressivness towards the officers, and by partially immobilizing the animal

Officers were sent to a residence for a suicidal male who had taken on overdose of prescription medication. No
indications of weapons were given to dispatch or the responding officers. When officers arrived the suspect was
very angry and would not respond to any verbal dialogue. As officers were trying to talk to the suspect in the
living room of the home, the wife of the suspect told officers that the suspect had a loaded shotgun in the
upstairs bedroom and she had taken it away from the suspect just prior to the officers arrival. The suspect then
suddenly attempted to run upstairs apparently to get at the gun. One officer grabbed the suspect and was
having difficulty controlling the suspect on the stairway. One officer was on scene with the M26 but was unable
to get a shot. He removed the cartridge and did a touch stun to the upper back of the suspect. The suspect yelled
out and went limp to the ground. He was controlled by the contact officers.
Comment: After handcuffing the suspect started to struggle again. He was told if he
did not stop resisting he would be exposed again. The suspect said, "I
give up, don't do that again."

The Emergency Service Unit was requested to respond to a homicide scene to assist patrol units with a barricaded
subject. Patrol Supervisor advised ESU that a homicide with a knife had occurred. The subject was an EDP and
had barricaded himself in his house. Entry was made and subject was located. Subject was unresponsive to
verbal commands from the team and would not show his hands. After repeated verbal commands were met with no
response the Taser was deployed and the subject dropped to the floor. The subject was cuffed and arrested. The
general feeling from the entry team was the subject was attempting suicide by cop. The use of the M26 Taser
prevented this from happening.
Comment: Subject initially said "OW", then had a far away thousand mile stare.

Description:
Officers dispatched to the scene of an unknown type of disturbance. Upon contact with the subject he physically
resisted arrest. Subject then broke free and attempted to run. Taser was deployed as subject turned and
attempted to run. Because subject was moving only top dart contacted and was ineffective since second dart hit a
wall. Subject was apprehended shortly thereafter and still continued to actively resist. Stun contact was
engaged just above the left hip at which time the subject complied with the arrest.
Comment:
Analysis: SHOULD REVIEW: Listed as success, but the M26 only had one probe go into
nonconductive wall. However, it is listed as a success as the touch stun worked on left
hip.

Description:
Officer was driving down the road and was flagged down by the subject. Upon contact with that subject it was
determined that he was on parole and had been out of prison for two days. During that two days he had been
continuously drinking and was distraught over an incident with police and a friend of his. This incident was the
justified shooting of a football player (the subject played with in college). This is a current media issue since it is
going to be litigated in Federal Court. The subject made statements to the officer that he felt like throwing himself
in front of a train. Because of these statements the officer called for assistance and was going to detain the
subject for evaluation by mental health. The subject did not want to go to the designated mental health facility and
became extremely agitated and kept reaching into a duffel bag. The primary officer felt that the subject could be
potentially forcing the officers into a "Suicide by Cop" situation similar to the one his friend was involved in. The
officer asked for assistance and requested both a Taser and Less Lethal Shotgun to respond to the location. The
primary officer had a K-9 partner but felt he would be ineffective due to the size of the subject (6'3" 295 Very
Muscular Build) and the risk to the K-9 was not justified for the incident. Responding officers arrived and the
subject became more agitated and turned to walk away while reaching into the duffel bag. Officers deployed the
M26 Taser which immediately dropped the subject to the ground. He was taken into custody without injury to the
suspect or officers.
Comment: Subject asked what he had been hit with.

Description:
Deputies responded to a call involving a mental subject. While attempting to take subject into custody. The
female suspect resisted and compliance holds were not effective. Suspect was hit with the taser and the first
discharge did not get compliance though it did effect her. A second discharge on the same cartridge was done
and the suspect then was abled to be handcuff and complied. On both discharges they were for the full five
seconds. One probe which impaled itself was on the upper middle chest area between the breast area. The second
probe did not impale into the skin b ut did attach itself to the clothing. This probe stuck just above the belt line
about two inches up and in the middle of the stomache area. The probes were approximately 5 inches apart.
Comment: On the second discharge she blurted out not to do that to her at the start
of the cycle. At the end of the cycle after she was handcuffed she stated
she would comply with further directions and requested that she not be charged again.
Steve, In response to your request the program would not allow me to enter the information on your
form so that is why I was not able to advise you where the probes struck.
On both discharges they were for the full five seconds. One probe which impaled itself was on the
upper middle chest area between the breast area. The second probe did not impale into the skin but
did attach itself to the clothing. This probe struck just above the belt line about two inches up and
in the middle of the stomach area. The probes were approximately 6 inches apart.

Description:
Inside one of our felony units, the suspect became belligerent and was physically removed from the area after he
attempted to assault the Deputy on duty. I responded and met them as they were exiting the door into the main
hallway. The suspect was placed on the ground and refused to place his hands behind his back. I drew the M26
and delivered a contact stun to the area between his shoulder blades. The suspect complied and was handcuffed
and segregated. There were no injuries to any party involved.
Comment: Towards the end of the 5 second cycle, the Taser made a "pop" sound and I received a short shock
through the back of the grip. The unit was in
contact with the suspect during it's cycle. No one received the shock
but me. Several Deputies were in contact with the suspect but did not receive the shock..
Analysis: Based on comments from Sgt. Garrett the unit was returned for analysis. It was
determined to have two failures. The unit still had the old weak battery trays and the UCC
had failed.

Description:
Officer attempted to place an emotionally disturbed spect into padded observation cell, suspect began to yell and
refused to enter the cell. Officer stopped to unlock the door, the suspect broke free and began walking backwards
down the main hallway. The suspect (a professional boxer in the area) began to also dance and punch the air
(shadowbox). Officer drew M26 and gave verbal orders to comply. He refused and continued his shadowboxing.
Officer closed the gap and shot the suspect with the M26. The bottom dart missed the suspect as he was jumping
around. The top dart glanced off his left upper arm and stopped in his shirt. The suspect turned and began to yell
as he was getting at least a partial charge. As the suspect started to stumble, he pulled the dart out of his shirt
just as the 5-second cycle ended. The suspect then ran toward the end of the main hallway and all responding
Deputies ran after him. The suspect then laid face-first on the ground and was handcuffed. I took him to the
padded cell and took the handcuffs off. As the last officer exited the cell, the suspect again became belligerent and
stood and turned towards the officer with his fists clenched. As the officer was beginning to draw the M26 again,
a Corporal sprayed the suspect in the facial area with pepper spray.
Comment: After about 30 minutes or so, I gave the suspect a shower and he apologized for acting up. He
stated he didn't like the pepper spray, but the Taser "really hurt".
Analysis: Not listed as succesful, because of a miss, but the subject did appear to get some of the
energy despite a one probe hit. Force didn't escalate as he voluntarily flipped on his
stomach.

Description:
While waiting in the holding cell, an intoxicated detainee began to flood the cell by continuously flushing the
toilet. As the duty Corporal entered the cell, the suspect attempted to hit him in the face. The Deputy attempted
to restrain him as the shift Sergeant used the Stun Mode of the M26 on the suspect. The suspect was stunned a
total of 5 times until he complied and was then handcuffed. He was also hit with mace by the arresting officer just
prior to this incident as he attempted to kick the window out of the patrol car, but the mace was ineffective.
Comment: The Taser worked great and prevented numerous possible injuries due to the nature of the incident.
During the altercation, several pressure point holds were attempted, but the Taser enabled the
Deputies to subdue the suspect safely. There were no injuries to Officers or Deputies.

Description:
On a traffic stop suspect, who had no driver's license ran on foot from police. Two officers pursued him and
caught up with him 70 yards away when he fell. When he fell he rolled up into the sitting position facing officer.
Officer pulled his Taser out and removed cartridge. Officer presented Taser to the suspect and told him to get
down and to give the officer his hands. Suspect took a swing with his hand at the Taser in an attempt to deflect it
or knock it out of officer's hand. As officer pulled back the Taser to avoid the swing, suspect rolled to his hands
and knees and began to get up. Officer activated the Taser and applied it to the suspects upper back near his spine
for the full 5 seconds. Suspect yelled and fell to his right elbow and knees. At this time the other officer arrived
and grabbed the suspects left wrist and applied an arm bar to his left arm. The suspect continued to resist and
began to get up. Officer applied another 5 second Stun application to the upper back. The suspect yelled again
and dropped to the prone position. However, he began to get back up after the Taser was turned off. Officer then
tried for a third stun but Taser would not work (apparently out of power - though officer had changed batteries
one week before -Duracells Ultra) At this time officer resorted to OC Spray. After two applications subject was able
to be cuffed. Probes were not used due to distance between officer and suspect.
Comment:
Analysis: SHOULD REVIEW: This might be considered successful in that touch stun was imparing
the subject during application. The suspect recovered immediately. The unit then stopped
for unknown reasons. Was the unit returned?

On March 22 2001, SWAT officers were negotiating with a suicidal felony. The customer attempted to run out a
back door and was struck with two bean bag rounds as he tried to climb a fence. Officer moved in as the suspect
got up and attempted to fight officers. One M26 was deployed and the suspect went down. He would not let
officers handcuff him so the Sgt deployed his M26 and they completed handcuffing the suspect. The first set of
probes hit the suspects rather large gut which may have effected the effectiveness due to the lack of muscle.

Description:
Deranged female well known to police for past violent encounters had received her eviction notice. She became
upset at the prospect of leaving her apartment and told her landlord she was going to kill herself. Police
arrived to find her with a large butcher knife pressed to her stomach in an extremely agitated state. She continued
to threaten to kill herself and threatened to kill anyone that approached her. The M26 was deployed with both
darts striking her upper body. She immediately dropped to the floor and dropped the knife while emitting a high
pitched keening sound. Once disarmed and cuffed she became agressive again and had to be sedated at the
hospital. She was admitted to a mental hospital for a short stay. The dart that pierced her skin was removed at the
hospital by a nurse. The other dart did not get through her clothing. No injuries were suffered by the subject or
police.
Comment: Deranged female. She continued her verbal threat to attending police and
complained about the pain of the Taser strike. She was mostly incoherent
due to her deranged state.

Subject was impaired in a bar and and was involved in an assault while leaving. He punched a patron three times
and then exposed himself to a large group. He was followed home and police arrived prior to his gaining
entry to his house. Attempts were made to arrest him and he became agitated and agressive. He was sprayed two
times with OC without effect and broke free and ran into his house. He locked his door and then started
destroying the inside of his house. He broke furniture and threw items through his windows out onto the lawn.
Police made several attempts to enter the house but each time the subject, now shirtless, attacked police
with broom handles, curtain rods and broken furniture. Entry was finally gained through a side door and the M26
TASER was employed as the subject blocked the doorway. One dart impact the males upper chest area while the
other dart hot the door frame. A second cartridge was deployed from the same gun and one dart again struck the
subject in the chest and stuck into
his skin but the other dart impacted on a broken wooden table leg he was brandashing. The Taser was quickly
re-loaded and the third cartridge proved a successful hit. Both darts hit the male in the chest area and he dropped
with a full five second application. Police were able to cuff him, but one dart fell off and the male continued to
violently struggle. He was removed to the hospital where the other dart was removed by emergency room staff
and the still combative male was sedated. The subject only suffered minor damage, but his suite was destroyed.
Comment: Subject made threats to police, but no comment to the Taser.
