The unconcious man "failed to respond to their challenges". http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/I-went-into-a-diabetic.3489707.jp "Police were called and two officers, who had been issued with Tasers just a fortnight earlier, boarded the empty bus and used the weapons twice on Mr Gaubert after he failed to respond to instructions." "West Yorkshire Police told him that he had been blasted twice with the weapons because after the first shock he had fallen from his seat and lay face down with one hand underneath his body. Officers said when he failed to respond to requests to remove his hand, they felt they had to stun him again to ensure it was safe to approach." Of course, no disciplinary action has been taken - you can't really expect police to be able to tell a man in a coma from a knife-wielding maniac.
