Taser Use in Police Chase Leads to Paralysis
Update: 2026-01-05
Description
In a London court, a mans life was forever changed when a police officers Taser deployment during a foot chase left him paralyzed. Leonard Sandiford, now confined to a wheelchair, was pursued by officers after an attempted burglary. The officer, PC Liam Newman, fired his Taser twice, causing Sandiford to fall and sustain severe spinal injuries. Newman denies the charge, and the trial continues as jurors consider if the Taser use was reasonable.
