For the Nth time: taser incident ends in gun fire, subject will be okay

{ROLLS EYES}

Kingsport Police: Officers fired taser before...

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is looking into an officer-involved shooting in Kingsport.

Kingsport, TN - "...When officers arrived, Keith Tomlinson rushed them with a large club, Kingsport Police Chief Gale Osborne said. Officer Martin Taylor fired one shot, hitting Keith Tomlinson in the shoulder... He is expected to recover. ... [The involved officers] were armed with at least one taser. 'They used it before the shooting,' but Chief Osborne would not say if that taser connected with Keith Tomlinson. ..." [LINK]

Safe to say that Taser International's various tasers are probably not in the running for Law Enforcement 'Product Of The Year'. LOL.
