From KSL -- WASHINGTON COUNTY -- A Utah man returning to Arizona to continue work on a PhD died after being tased by police outside Hurricane Tuesday afternoon. It's a story that hits at KSL because 32-year-old Brian Cardall is the son of longtime reporter and now editorial director Duane Cardall.A Washington County critical task force has already started looking into Brian's death. He, his wife and daughter were returning to their Arizona home following a trip to see family in Utah.
According to family members, Brian struggled with a mental illness and began having an episode just outside Hurricane on state Road 59. The family pulled over to get Cardall medicine when he started running down the road.
Law enforcement was called; Hurricane police were the first to respond. It was actually one of their officers who deployed the Taser. Police say Brian collapsed, unconscious.
Read the rest.
Cops do seem to be getting a little too trigger happy with those tasers, don't they?

Ohhh less lethal force.
No way man, you can't have crazy people with families just running up the road? That is insane!
This reminds me of that ape ripping that ladies face off, If they would have put a end to him when he retired from the old navy commercials that wouldn't have happened. This retard was a ticking timebomb bound to go off, kudos to the fast acting police officers doing their jobs in the correct fashion..
