VICTORIA, TX — An elderly man was slammed to the pavement and tased when a police officer mistakenly thought that he had violated the state’s “vehicle inspection sticker” law. Except he hadnt violated the law. But that didnt stop the officer from slamming him to the concrete and then tasing him twice. “He just acted like a pit bull, and that was it,” said 76-year-old Vasquez told the Victoria Advocate. “For a while, I thought he was going to pull his gun and shoot me.” A sales manager at the Auto Mart witnessed the assault, and was so disturbed by the use of force that he confronted the officer: “I told the officer, ‘What in the hell are you doing?’ This gentleman is 76 years old,” said 62-year-old Larry Urich. “The cop told me to stand back, but I didn’t shut up. I told him he was a g**damn Nazi Stormtrooper.”
