Taser doesn't stop armed suspect

This bodycam footage comes courtesy of Jacksonville, Florida and shows two of their officers responding to a call regarding someone being threatened with a firearm. Despite warning commands, the suspect continued to threaten the victim with a handgun. A Jacksonville officer tried to use a TASER to incapacitate the suspect, but it failed, allowing them to fire a round and be shot in response. Although they ultimately survived, viewer discretion remains advised. While neuromuscular incapacitation is a powerful and useful tool, no delivery system to date has a 100% success rate. While the officers' attempt to end the situation without lethal force is doubtlessly grounded in good intentions, it's a very high-stakes gamble. We can see the immediate ballistic feedback associated with that course of action. The suspect, Kiyan Atkinson, 22 years of age, was able to fire a round and was shot several times by both officers in response. Despite all of this, Atkinson managed to reach for their handgun yet again before being taken into custody and treated for their injuries. Although no other persons were harmed, Atkinson was charged with aggravated assault and attempted murder of a police officer.
