“The 19-year-old driver was in a hypoglycemic state. He’s diabetic. His blood sugar was dangerously low. ‘Step out of the vehicle, sir. Provide me with your driver’s license and insurance,’ the officer can be heard saying. ‘Step out of the vehicle. Or I will tase you!’ 23-seconds later he does, firing at the teenager once in the car and once on the ground. Emergency crews arrive. The officer finds out what was wrong. ‘I didn’t know he was freakin’ diabetic!’ the officer said.”
