Officer shoots man - Police: "Tasers didn’t stop him"
The suspect [UPDATE: Anthony Donald Chavez] was combative with the officers, refused to comply, and was tasered twice. He continued to resist actively, tried to gain possession of one of the officer’s guns. He was very aggressive toward the officers. One officer fired his gun during the altercation, he said. The 38 year old man is expected to survive his injuries. [LINK]

Taser ineffective. Twice. Situation escalates. Officers' lives endangered. Man shot, but he is expected to survive.
A bit too much faith in the promises (safe, effective, reliable) made by the stun gun salesmen?
