An African-American teen in Connecticut is recovering in the hospital after being shocked by Hartford police with a Taser, even though his family said that he was obeying officers’ commands. In surveillance video obtained by WTIC, 18-year-old Luis Anglero Jr. can be seen walking up to an officer, and then comes to a sudden stop and puts his arms to his side. However, the officer continues to advance toward Anglero, and fires his Taser, causing the teen to fall to the ground. Members of Anglero’s family who witnessed the incident said that the teen hit his head on the sidewalk, and started to bleed.
