Spare the Rod

Two Martinsville, Indiana, police officers have been suspended for tasering a 10-year-old boy at a home daycare center. Officers were called to the center because the boy was allegedly trying to harm other children and staff members. The department says the boy hit and kicked the officers, but Police Chief Jon Davis says he believes the officers should have been able to handle the boy without using a Taser on him.
