Tasers Help to End Hostage Situations.

Taser products are used to benefit society. They protect life, family and truth. They are used in a postive way across the world.

They have reduced the need for police officers to have violent encounters with resistive suspects. They are the safest alternative and can save lives when suspects are armed with deadly weapons.

Let us take a look at some cases where Tasers have helped police officers.

In northeast Kansas, Shawnee County officers took a father into custody early Sunday morning after the man held his son hostage in the family's home.

Police initially responded to a domestic disturbance call which ended when the mother left with one child and the father, Greg Hanna, with another.

At 3:30 a.m. authorities were called back to the house after Hanna returned and barricaded himself inside the home with his son.

Police located the child inside and with SWAT team assistance, were able to get remove the boy from the home around 6:30 a.m. At this time, officials heard several shots

fired inside the house and responded with a TASER device to subdue Hanna for arrest. No one was hurt.

According to news reports from The Pittsburgh Tribune Review, local police used a TASER device to incapacitate and arrest Travis Lee Moriarty, 24, of Manchester after he led police on a car and ground chase, broke into a home and then took a woman hostage on Thursday night, June 15.

City Street Response Unit officers saw Moriarty buying drugs in the Marshall/Shadeland section of the city.

When Moriarty saw the officers he fled the scene and continued to elude police even after two collisions in stolen vehicles.

After the second crash, Moriarty ran into a nearby home on Kearns Avenue and took a woman hostage.

Police were finally able to deploy a TASER device through a smashed window and enter the home to arrest the suspect.

The hostage was uninjured.

These incidents show how effective Tasers can be in stopping violent confrontations.

They are very useful for police officers as they can depend on it when lethal force is required to stop a suspect without injuring or killing.
