Tasers Reassigned To Charleston City Police
WEST VIRGINIA....
Nineteen Tasers have been reassigned to the Charleston city police Patrol Division after two of the stun guns went missing and the rest were taken from officers in early 2009. Each of the four patrol shifts will have four officers assigned a Taser. The additional three will be assigned at the discretion of the Patrol Division commander. Fourteen other Tasers were reissued to the SWAT team, the Metro Drug Unit and the Criminal Investigations Division. Chief Brent Webster says he is still uncertain about the missing Tasers, but he does not believe they are on the streets anywhere.
