SENIOR police officers called for a review yesterday into the safety of Tasers following the death of a young man after he was shot with a stun gun.

Factory worker Jordon Begley, 23, died two hours after he was Tasered while being restrained by three armed officers from Greater Manchester Police in July 2013.

While the initial Taser shock did not cause his heart to stop, a jury concluded this week that the weapon’s use and the restraint “more than materially contributed” to a “package” of factors leading to Mr Begley’s death.
