Cop Blinds Himself With Pepper Spray, Gets Tasered by Police

[quote](Sept. 10) -- A police officer blinds himself with pepper spray, then another cop zaps him with a Taser on Friday the 13th. No, it's not a pitch for a new "Keystone Kops" film -- it's a crime story from England that proves that criminals aren't a police officer's only foe.
Police constable Jason Mepham was responding to a disturbance call in Redruth last month when things took a turn for the slapstick.
The officer, confronted by Jason King, whipped out his pepper spray and doused the suspect. Then a second blast blew back into the cop's eyes, temporarily blinding him, according to The Independent. A second officer grabbed King, but another perp at the scene punched Mepham in the face, dislocating his jaw.
The other officer released King and fired his Taser at the new assailant. One of the electrodes hit the perp, but the other struck Mepham. Mepham collapsed and King allegedly kicked him in the face -- strangely relocating the cop's jaw.
Backup arrived and arrested King, who later pleaded guilty to assaulting an officer and being drunk and disorderly, among other charges. "It's quite amusing when I look back at it now, but at the time it was horrific," said Mepham, who was hospitalized but returned to duty later that evening.[/quote]

If you are getting arrested just go quietly. You're not going to get away, and you're just going to make it harder on yourself.
Sounds like something out of the Three Stooges.

Fixed is a word.
Wait guys! It doesn't need more flavor, we need to cook it longer!
My uncle who's a cop accidentally tasered himself once.
Did anyone say incompetence? Oh well, seems like it worked out fine.

That is extraordinary, a one in a million chance really.
I guess if someone videotaped this, it would not end up on Cops, but a cooking show.
First you season, then you fry :v:.
It sure sounds like a jaw breaking experience.
oh my god what I would give to see that.

As much as I hate to say it, this IS true.
I America, cops shoot each other sometimes, or even shoot perps by "accident" after they have been detained.
That literally made me laugh out loud. What a shitty day for the cop! Poor dude! At least his jaw was fixed.
I wish the incident would've been filmed, sped up, and set to Yakety Sax.
gosh that had to suck
