COTATI (KPIX 5) — A Sonoma County man’s video that shows police officers kicking in a door and using a stun gun on him has gone viral and is raising questions about the constitutionality of police tactics.
James Wood, 33, said he had a loud argument with his wife last Friday, but what he did not know was that a neighbor had called 911.
The call, and a subsequent call by a police officer for backup, started a chain of events which led to Wood getting zapped by a stun gun several times while his wife, Jennifer, is heard screaming in the background.
When officers showed up at his door, Wood said four officers all drew their pistols, pointed them at the couple and a family friend and demanded to go inside without explaining why.
