30,000 police officers across all forces in England and Wales are to be trained to use 10,000 taser stun guns.

At the moment, only specialist firearms officers can carry a taser gun.


The Taser guns fire two barbed darts with wires attached. The gun then delivers a five second, 50,000 volt shock which can temporarily disable a suspect.
