Cops on leave after Taser incident, student's behavior under scrutiny - CNN.com

Cops on leave after Taser incident, student's behavior under scrutiny - CNN.com:

"(CNN) -- Two University of Florida police officers were placed on leave
with pay after using an electronic stun gun to subdue a student who was
questioning Sen. John Kerry at a campus forum, the school's president said
Tuesday. Student Andrew Meyer is surrounded by university police in Gainesville,
Florida, on Monday. But the student's behavior and past activities are prompting
questions about whether the incident was part of a stunt."


It is good to know that there are going to be investigations and that there might be charges. The student was clearly out of line, he was provoking an incident. The police should have handled the situation better though, they had enough officers, and had him on the floor in cuffs when they tasered him.
