Stun Gun Used on a Man Who Hit His Girlfriend While Holding Her Child

Maybe one day people will realize that violence isn't an appropriate response in a disagreement. Until then, police will have to use a stun gun if necessary in order to protect themselves and others. They recently had to do this when a man wouldn't stop his violent behavior after hurting his own girlfriend.

Police were called to a domestic disturbance. Apparently, a man had punched his girlfriend twice over an argument over something as petty as a cell phone. What is worse is that his girlfriend was holding her baby boy when he punched her. The police responded as quickly as they could.

When the police arrived, the man hadn't calmed down in the slightest. One of the police officers told the man that he was under arrest and then attempted to put handcuffs on him. The man refused to cooperate and elbowed the officer in his chest and then his stomach. The man turned around and struck the officer again on his right side.

It was at this point that the other officer intervened by using a stun gun to shock the man. After he fell to the ground, they placed the handcuffs on him. He was then examined by the firemen who had shown up. They concluded that he had suffered no permanent injury and he was then hauled off to jail.

It is hard to say what went through this man's head to make him think that striking his girlfriend would be a good idea, especially since she was holding a child. The man was booked on suspicion of domestic assault, child neglect, and third degree assault on an officer. Perhaps next time he is in a situation like that, he will think twice before swinging his fists and elbows.
