Man bursts into flames after Taser shock

You have got to be kidding me! Actually no, this is for real. This story occurred in Australia. The report is from CNN.com.

Police had received a report that the man and some others were sniffing glue, Munnee said.

At the sight of the arriving officers, the man ran out of the house with a container of gasoline and a cigarette lighter, police said.

When he ignored the officer’s command to stop, the officer fired his Taser stun gun — and the man “caught Talight,” Munnee said.

WTF? To add insult to injury, while the police officer was trying to put the man out a woman was throwing rocks at him (at the cop). The officer was treated for burns and cuts from the rocks. It just doesn’t pay does it? That is why I am a firefighter and not a cop!

Apparently this has happened before in Texas.
