A fourteen year old was shot in the head by Tucumcari Police Chief Roger Hatcher, and has recently been released from an Albuquerque hospital after receiving several staples and stitches. The girl's mother brought her to the police station so that they could help her with an argument about the girl's cell phone. Apparently she had been, "sexting" and the mother thought the police could handle her better. Handle her they did after the girl ran out of the police station. Police Chief Hatcher ran after her, finally catching up to her at a park. The girl slowed down, but became scared after Hatcher yelled at her to stop and threatened force with the taser. She started to run again.

"Hatcher said he attempted to catch up to the girl by foot was unable to do so and believes he had no choice but to fire a Taser dart to stop her."

The girl's parents are very upset. Apparently, the girl already suffered from epilepsy, and now is having balance problems. She is also unable to climb steps.

    • There is no reason to use aggressive force to pursue a child. I can't believe brutality like this has become so common there's actually a "taser" tag now on current. Police across this country need retraining or maybe to lose their tasers all together.

    • Nothing good can come of asking the police to solve your problems. I hope this mother learned her lesson.
      This police officer should pay, with his job and monetarily.

    • Stupid and disgusting!

      Leave it to an idiot mother and this is what you get. The girl will need therapy for the rest of her life for the cold, callous manner with which her mother dominates her life.

      Why was she sexting? Easy enough. Her dad's practically non-existent in her life as her mother's pushed him out in favor of her own dysfunctional parenting style. Three cheers for stupidity.

      What do you want to bet the police chief's got a drug addict child?
