That's One Way to Make Yourself Understood

|

Police forced their way into Donnell William's home in Wichita and found him just getting out of his tub, with a towel around his waist. They say they told him to show them his hands and he didn't. Williams says he wasn't wearing his hearing aid and without it he's deaf. "I kept going to my ear yelling that I was scared.  I can't hear!  I can't hear," he said. Apparently, the officers didn't hear him because when he didn't comply with their orders, they Tased him. They say they were concerned about their safety. The police were responding a call about a shooting, a call that turned out to be a false one.
