Literally shocking: Russian security forces unveil ‘Taser shield’ (VIDEO)
Russian police plan to employ ‘Taser shields’ in raids against crime. The ‘shocking’ new device was unveiled during the Advanced Technologies in Law Enforcement Expo near Moscow.
“Its whole surface holds an electrical charge. So, if someone charges at me, I can electrocute him,” an officer at the booth told a reporter from Lenta.ru, adding that the shield might also help to deter possible offenders and discourage them from dangerous behavior.
Different types of ‘Taser shields,’ also known as ‘stun shields,’ are already in use in some US police and sheriffs’ departments, as well as in correctional facilities.
