I heard through the grape vine that this may be a very sad case of the Police Officer thinking he was reaching for a taser and deploying that and not his side arm.

Thats not official, thats just thoughts about why such a barbaric act was done on a restrained man. A taser deployment would be done just like this - face down if he was resisting arrest.

The officer has resigned straight off, and is yet to find out what legal implications he will face.
