A school in New Mexico was having career day, guest from around town came and talked with students about their career. Usually police are there to protect people, but this day turned out to be a lot different.

An officer was doing his presentation about his job when he asked a group of students if they wanted to wash his patrol car. One student in particular said no in a jokingly manner. The officer then pulled out his taser and told the student “Let me show you what happens to people who do not listen to the police.”

The student, who only weighs about 100 lbs. was hit in the chest by the taser and immediately blacked out. The officer freaked out and ran to the student to remove the barbs from his chest, they left marks on the student that looked like cigarette burns.

The officer said it was just an accident... then he was "accidentally" suspended from work for three days without pay.
