A police officer from a Tampa suburb has been fired after footage from a body cam emerged showing him using a Taser on a shoplifting suspect who had his hands up.
The officer, 36-year-old Tim Claussen, went to the house of Lester Brown, on September 9 to investigate a theft that had occurred at a local retailer earlier that day. The white officer asked Brown, who is black, to leave his house, but Brown didn’t comply.
“Come outside now,” Claussen said, “or you’re about to get tased. This is the last time.”
