TASER Used to Catch a Fleeing Burglar
We all make mistakes and we inevitably have to pay for them. This is especially true when it comes to breaking the law. If you commit a crime, there is a huge chance that you will get caught. One man in Kentucky discovered this first hand when police used a TASER on him for fleeing. He fled because he had a warrant for his arrest.
There had been a robbery in a Lexington neighborhood and the police were questioning various people in the area. They started to question one man who was walking down the street. They asked if he had seen or heard anything, but in the middle of the series of questions he took off running.
Whenever this sort of thing happens, it is a pretty big sign to the police that the guy running is guilty of something. So, they started to chase after him. They chased him to someone's backyard and tried to get him to give himself up. He refused and was about to start running again when an officer pulled out his TASER and fired it. The suspect fell to the ground as the electricity coursed through his body.
The man was arrested for fleeing but when they ran his name, the found out the reason he fled. The suspect had a warrant for robbery, though it wasn't for the robbery that the officers had been investigating.
It is kind of funny in a way how one robbery led to an arrest for a different robbery. It just goes to show that justice will find a way and everyone will pay in the end for the wrongs that they have done.
