據福克斯新聞網8日報道,紐約北部一名29歲的男子將自己全身塗滿洗手液,在被警方的泰瑟槍(電擊槍)擊中後,他整個人燃燒起來。
據《奧爾巴尼時代聯盟報》報道,這個名叫傑森·瓊斯(Jason
Jones)的男子上周進入卡茨基爾警察局,並與警察發生了肢體衝突。警方告訴當地媒體,這名男子當時看上去像是喝醉了,警察就發射泰瑟槍製服了他。
“我想警察是怕他會傷到自己,所以才會對他使用泰瑟槍。”警長戴夫·達林(Dave
Darling)說,“我們仍在努力弄清一些細節。”

目前尚不清楚這名男子是何時將洗手液倒在自己身上的,也不清楚警察是否目睹了他這麽做。
據報道,受傷男子目前在錫拉丘茲一所大學醫院重症監護室接受治療。知情人士告訴媒體,他的情況很嚴重。格林縣地區檢察官辦公室正在調查這起事件。
