Granny gets tasered for speeding
[Iran Press TV Latest] An American police officer shoots a 72-year-old woman with a taser gun after she refused to sign a speeding ticket and confronted him. Chris Bieze, a Travis County sheriff's deputy, stopped Kathryn Winkfein for driving at 60 mph (97 km/h) in a 45-mile-per-hour construction zone west of Austin. When Winkfein refused to sign the speeding ticket, Bieze reportedly ordered her out of her white pick-up truck, told her she was under arrest, and was later caught on camera tasering her for confronting him. Travis County Constable's Office released a controversial video footage that shows the elderly women getting shot twice after she dared the police officer to do so and tried to get back in her car. The video shows her moaning and falling to the ground while the shocks jolted through her body. Winkfein was examined by emergency medical staff at the scene and was determined to be unharmed before being taken into custody. Winkfein admits she was speeding but denies resisting arrest.
