TASER Used on Man After He Turns Fire Hose on Police

TASER guns are used when people are a threat to themselves and/or others and refuse to comply. One man from Laurel, Virginia found that out recently when he chose to interfere with the fire department. Wait. What? Yeah, a man actually interfered with fire fighters while they were trying to put out a burning house.

A house somehow caught on fire, so naturally the fire department was called. But as they were trying to put out the fire an unnamed man kept going toward the burning house. The police kept warning him to stay away from the fire, but he would soon return and get close to the burning house again.

Two officers decided to escort him away and keep him away, but as they started to escort him, somehow he grabbed a fire hose and started to spray them. They eventually wrestled the hose away from him, but he became combative with the police, so they took the next logical step.

One of the officers took out his TASER and used it on the man. He was then arrested and taken to the hospital. Once he was cleared, he was taken off to jail.

I’m sorry, but I don’t have a clue what could have been going on in this guy’s head. Why in the world would anyone want to get close to a burning house and interfere the way that he did? Thankfully the police had a TASER there to get that man to stop getting in the way so that the fire department could do their job. I just hope that he doesn’t go to a hospital and start to interfere with the doctors there too.
