Police use stun gun on 6-year-old boy
Officials: Child was cutting himself with glass











MIAMI, Florida (AP) -- Police used a stun gun on a 6-year-old boy in his principal's office because he was wielding a piece of glass and threatening to hurt himself, officials said Thursday.

The boy, who was not identified, was shocked with 50,000 volts on October 20 at Kelsey Pharr Elementary School.

Principal Maria Mason called 911 after the child broke a picture frame in her office and waved a piece of glass, holding a security guard back.

When two Miami-Dade County police officers and a school officer arrived, the boy had already cut himself under his eye and on his hand.

The officers talked to the boy without success. When the boy cut his own leg, one officer shocked him with a Taser and another grabbed him to prevent him from falling, police said.

He was treated and taken to a hospital, where he was committed for psychiatric evaluation.

"By using the Taser, we were able to stop the situation, stop him from hurting himself," police spokesman Juan DelCastillo told The Miami Herald.

The case was under review.

I agree with you, his little arse needed to be beat, but using a taser I don't think is necessary, by any means.
 



This is sad. How are you not able to control a 6 year old. :smh: This is a bit over the top if you asked me.
 
They TASERED HIS LIL ARSE!!!:lmao:
Heyall nawwwllllll!!!!:lmao: That's just wrong. Excessive force to the millionth power! :tdown:
 
I read about this on CNN. If the officer was close enough to use the Taser it seems he should have been able to get control of the arm of the 6-year old to subdue him.
 
Aren't those officers a lot stronger than a 6-yr old? :confused: Why would a stun gun be needed on him? They could have tackled his lil' ass and taken the glass away...WTF!
 
This kid should be traumatized. I agree with SU's Finest. Cop vs. 6-year old But DAYUM!!! THEY TASERED HIS LIL ARSE!!!!:lmao:
Over friggin kill! :lmao: :wtf:
I can just the captain saying "Smith! WTF did you taser that lil kid? WTF were YOU and Jones thinking? You couldn't subdue a 6-year old?"


WANNA GET AWAY? Southwest Airlines has flights to your area and in around the country.
 
My thoughts exactly. That was too much forced being used, and then a 6 year old. That don't make any sense what so ever. Someone could have threw him on the groud or something. L, I have seen police officers take down a gunsman twice their size without any other mechanisms involved. This is just sad, and these officers should have gotten some form of reprimand, not fired but something. 6 my gosh wtf. And whomever made the comment about beating him, for what? L, we don't know what or why he was cutting himself. Like I said in the suicide thread, folks really need to pay attention to their kids especially in this crazy age we live in.
