Do you think stun guns are too dangerous, or should police still be able to use them to arrest disorderly people?
MT. PLEASANT -- A media report says police had used a stun gun on a jail inmate about an hour before the man died in a Mid-Michigan jail cell.
The Morning Sun reports Bradford Gibson was being arrested for disorderly conduct at a Mt. Pleasant bar, when he resisted police and assaulted an officer. Police used the device to arrest him, and then took him to the Isabella County Jail.
Earlier this week, NBC25 learned that Gibson was found unconscious in his cell around 3:00 a.m. He was not breathing, and didn’t have a pulse.
An autopsy will be performed to determine the exact cause of death. In the meantime, the Associated Press says Michigan State Police are investigating.
