Deputies Take Man Down on Grass as Taser Fires

Several deputies in black shirts marked SHERIFF wrestle a man face-down across open lawn, a roadside and parked vehicles behind them. Voices order him to stop resisting. He keeps repeating that he is done.

The Struggle on the Lawn

The man is held flat while officers kneel around him, one pointing and shouting at someone off-frame. In the recorded audio he says he was arrested after fighting back.

"You did this yourself. You didn't have to tase me."

Two Versions of the Jolt

The Spanish caption calls it a workplace accident and says a police officer took the taser jolt. The dialogue instead has the man on the ground saying the taser struck him, sparking debate online. The exact location and the sequence of events are not officially confirmed.
