Police taser a man outside a property in Dunedin, and later pepper-spray him while he receives medical care in hospital, according to multiple local outlets. The man is tasered during an incident outside a Brockville-area property, after police intervene with him at the scene. After the tasering, he is taken to hospital for treatment. While in hospital, police say he “acts up” or behaves aggressively during medical care, and he is then pepper-sprayed. One report describes the sequence as tasering followed by pepper-spraying in hospital, while another adds detail that the pepper-spraying occurs after alleged disruptive behaviour while staff provide medical care related to the earlier taser incident. Both accounts describe the pepper-spraying as happening after the initial taser and in the context of a hospital setting, rather than at the original location. The reports do not provide further information in the excerpts about injuries, charges, or the man’s identity.
