But before being shot, the teen had been repeatedly tasered. The intense pain caused the teen to run.

Dave Savini and the CBS 2 Investigators reveal a disturbing trend of who officers are more likely to use Tasers on.

        AI does a better job than this. You can literally copy and paste this article into Chat GPT and ask it to write a headline and everything it spits out is better than this.
