Man killed by Mounties with Tasers
The latest victim of the use of Tasers is a man in his 40s who died early Sunday morning after Royal Canadian Mounted Police who jolted him with a Taser at the Vancouver International Airport, police said
Airport security called the Mounties for assistance after an unidentified man began pounding on windows and throwing chairs and computer equipment in the customs area shortly after arriving on an international flight at 1:30 a.m.
CBC reports that the man appeared to be enraged, pounding on windows and throwing chairs and computer equipment, and refused to calm down. When he ignored orders to calm down, police used a stun gun on the man. The man dropped to the floor and police said it took three officers to handcuff him. He then lost consciousness and appeared to go into cardiac arrest and was pronounced dead at the airport, the CBC's Chris Brown reported.
Few other details have been disclosed other than the man spoke an Eastern European language and a flight from Poland touched down about an hour before the incident.
