(CN) - Police Tasered an 86-year-old disabled grandma in her bed and stepped on her oxygen hose until she couldn't breathe, after her grandson called 911 seeking medical assistance, the woman and her grandson claim in Oklahoma City Federal Court.

Though the grandson said, "Don't Taze my granny!" an El Reno police officer told another cop to "Taser her!" and wrote in his police report that he did so because the old woman "took a more aggressive posture in her bed," according to the complaint.

Ok, I can understand why he felt threatened...

Honestly....

Maybe she was reaching for a stapler.




Cops are deadly afraid of staplers.

This wasn't an episode of Reno 911 was it?

The officer might be a hero, all McGyver like, using his taser as a AED "defribrillator". As she leaned forward he sensed her heart going into....nevermind. :dig

PS, just how stupid is it to use a taser around O2?
