NYPD to carry Tasers on belt

NEW YORK – Starting Wednesday, thousands of New York police sergeants will begin carrying Tasers on their belts. The NYPD has been using the electric stun guns since 1984, but past policy limited sergeants’ use of Tasers, forcing them to store the stun guns in their trunks while patrolling rather than strapping the weapons to their hips.
