Innocent 62 year old man tasered in his own home

A recent news report sheds light on the incident; filmed on a police officer's body cam. The footage shows police forcing their way into a home, reach a staircase within the address, then after one warning fire a taser weapon at the 62 year old man.

After being tasered the man fell down the stairs backwards, landing on his back, hitting his head as he lands. Many are saying that if the situation was different, with the 62 year old coming from a different background; the outcome would not have been so violent.

There is also a lack of clarity as to whether or not the man was tasered in his back. Aside from this, there were charges brought against two people in the property. These charges are also being questioned. The charges were not serious and seem to be in relation to the incident that took place at the address.

If you have not seen the footage please google the incident (62 year old man tasered in Tottenham). Make your own mind up on whether or not you think this treatment was fair and necessary.
