It was an encounter one Ozark 10-year-old will likely never forget.
Called to a home to help control an allegedly "unruly child," an Ozark police officer was reportedly told by the girl's mother that he could use the electric weapon to subdue her, according to 40/29 News Arkansas.
However, the girl supposedly kicked the officer in the groin when he approached. "He had no other choice [but to Taser her]," Ozark Police Choief Jim Noggle reportedly said. "He had to get the child under control."
According to the Associated Press, the officer's name is Dustin Bradshaw. His aggressive approach to dealing with a child has the girl's father enraged.
"If you can't pick the kid up and take her to your car, handcuff her, then I don't think you need to be an officer," Anthony Medlock reportedly said.

It seems because people like to hate on cops. Current is a prime example of that. Post something positive about a cop where does it go? NOWHERE....post a negative story BOOM it is popular. People don't understand what a taser does let alone only focusing on the bad to pass their prejudging thoughts.
