Policeman who Tasered a man who caught fire and died will not face criminal charges but could be disciplined (http://www.westernmorningnews.co.uk/charges-officer-Tasered-man-caught-died/story-23205424-detail/story.html)


A police officer who Tasered a man who caught fire and died because he was doused in petrol will not face criminal charges but could face gross misconduct hearing.

Andrew Pimlott, who suffered fatal burns when he was hit by the stun gun in Plymouth in April 2013, had poured petrol over himself and was holding a lit match at the time.

Whew! Good thing the cop saved him from dropping the lit match.

Probably not much room on a cops belt anymore for one of these. With all the "officer safety" equipment and such.

well, cops have fire extinguishers in their cars, so its not like they didn't really want to set him on fire...

I got electrocuted and burned and all I got was a T-shirt that says, "He did this to himself."
