Policeman shot boy with stun gun – sentenced

The incident occurred in Mariestad earlier this year. The boy, who was unruly and acting out, was handcuffed and strapped into the back seat of a police car when the police used their stun gun on him. It was disproportionate, according to the Skaraborg District Court.

If the verdict becomes final, the police will lose their jobs, according to a statement from the police personnel responsibility board.
