Taser in eye trumped Glock in armed Orlando confrontation
Incident began outside One Eyed Jack's sports bar
January 3, 2014|By Henry Pierson Curtis, Orlando Sentinel
An unusual injury followed a confrontation in downtown Orlando last month when police tried to disarm a man outside One Eyed Jack's sports bar, records show.
Rather than shoot Travis James Rodriguez for not dropping a Glock pistol on Dec. 8, a police officer used an electronic stun gun that delivers 50,000 volts through prongs tethered by tiny wires. One prong punctured Rodriguez's right eyeball as the Taser automatically discharged a five-second shock, according to Orlando police.

I guess he is now One-Eyed Travis.
