Colo. County Settles Taser-Related Lawsuit
El Paso County officials agreed Tuesday to a $56,000 settlement with a Peyton, Colo., man who was shot twice in the chest with a Taser during a 2007 incident. According to the lawsuit, Jiles Theron Bennett was shocked twice after being pulled over for driving too slowly. Bennett claims that the police officer involved used excessive force and that the arrest constituted an unreasonable seizure.
