I am surprised their policies didn’t say not to taser people who have alcohol on them.
Our policies wouldn’t even allow you to taser anyone who appeared wet since it could be flammable.
Common sense would tell you the spark could ignite the hand sanitizer.
I can’t remember all the rules but you could not tase someone who was wet, had been pepper sprayed, was in a tree or a plethora of other things.
Taser are a great tool but should in my humble opinion should only be used when the other options are worse. They can seriously fuck someone up as they face plant into the ground. As such it shouldn’t be used just to use it.
It was progonally designed to be a less lethal alternative to a gun.
It gets treated as a human cattle prod.
No tasering someone who’s already been pepper-sprayed? Hadn’t heard that before. Is pepper-spray flammable? Or is it a worry using two different shocks to the system in a short time?
Some are. An allied agency (fancy term for agency you may assist) used an alcohol based pepper spray. Nobody knew until a person caught fire. After that it was banned for anyone pepper sprayed just to be safe.

Makes sense; police sees man trying to attempt suicide and tries to stop it
