An 87-year-old woman was out cutting dandelions with a knife when an employee of a Boys and Girls club called the police, telling them she refused to leave.

“She’s old so she can’t get around too well, but,” the employee said on the 911 recording. “Looks like she’s walking around looking for something, like, vegetation to cut down or something. There’s a bag, too.”


Officers arrived and responded to the situation by holding her at gunpoint, shocking her with a taser and keeping her in jail for hours, the Associated Press reports.

The department’s police chief defended officers’ actions, claiming that given the situation, this was the least aggressive use of force.


Here's an even less aggressive use of force: One cop distracts her from the front by talking to her. Another cop ambushes her from behind, grabbing her wrist and wrestling the knife out of the hand of that frail 87yo woman.

Or how about an even less aggressive use of force: Instead of pointing your guns at the woman, how about pointing at the knife with your fingers and signalling her to put the knife away?


:rolleyes: Exactly when did Cops become such Pussies? How many guys around here can handle their 87yo grandmother? :awesome:
