Barrow Taser arrest man dies

A man has died in Cumbria after being arrested by police who used a Taser. Police were called to Hartington Street, in Barrow, at 18:30 BST on Tuesday, following reports of a man causing a disturbance. A Taser was deployed during the arrest of the man, who was in his 20s, and he later complained of feeling unwell. He was taken to hospital, where he died.

Is this a sign that the Police are upping their game with disturbances due to the out of hand riots? Sounds pretty harsh for using the taser to be honest.

Any views?
