Police Stun Gun Needed to Subdue Suspect

Police in Chico found themselves subduing a 46-year-old man with a stun gun after it was alleged that he brandished a knife and struggled with officers.

The man in question was initially at a dental office with a woman where she had an appointment. For reasons unknown the man then became upset and acted in a violent manner towards the woman.

A man who was passing confronted the hostile individual who he reported was brandishing a knife at him; however, the knife itself was kept in the closed position.

It wasn’t long before the police were called to the scene where they ordered the man to drop to his knees. As a result of his refusal an officer approached the man with his baton drawn, but the 46-year-old man tried to bite him.

The suspect was brought to the ground, but a struggle ensued. In order to get the suspect under control a police stun gun was employed on him. He was then arrested and taken to Butte County Jail.

Thankfully there are more police departments which are employing these self defense tools as part of their protective equipment. Without them the use of brute force would be required. However, not all situations require the use of brute force.

When it comes to public protection having a device on hand that will produce the results you want is of vital importance. Whether it’s knowing how to utilize what is around you or simply relying on a powerful stunning device such as a stun gun for your defense you will find that you are more confident when you have something that you can rely on when you need it most.

In this day and age we all need something to protect us from criminals, but it is reassuring to know that officers are also equip with these non-lethal devices as well. This means that they can effectively protect us when we need it without the police or the suspects themselves coming to harm.

Brute force is no longer required when police have the assistance from a stun gun to effectively subdue a suspect with minimal fuss involved.
