For that matter, why was he even going for a taser at that point? The guy was already caught.

Tasers may have been the worst thing invented because it seems like every cop is just itching to use them.
The man was not an actual cop. He was an auxiliary officer. He is a millionaire that donates money and supplies to the local police that also volunteers with them. He thought he was grabbing his tazer.
This guy had no official police traing at all! This is exactly why RCMP auxiliary officers do not get the right to carry anything other than a flashlight.
