Reported RCMP self-Tasering nearly ends in disaster...

Rumours are swirling about an incident this weekend where a local RCMP officer accidentally tasered himself (a situation that absolutely begs for further details). Apparently, because of the seriousness of the effects, he had to go to a local hospital. Reportedly he was sent on to a specialist cardiac unit in a downtown hospital due to an irregular heartbeat.

It is a damn good thing that he is a strong and healthy police officer, as opposed to the average citizen where the risk of death would obviously be much higher.

We wish him well and hope that he makes a full recovery.

No further details are available at this time.

Update: Apparently it was simply an accidental tasering of his leg in push-mode where the probes are only an inch apart. And he still had to go to the hospital. And his heartbeat was irregular.
