Taser is a brand name of an electroshock weapon. It fires two small dart-like electrodes, delivering an electric current to cause the recipient neuromuscular incapacitation.
A person hit by a Taser may experience pain, over-stimulation of sensory and motor nerves and intense, involuntary muscle contractions.
