Carbon Dioxide extinguishers can cause frost bite, chemical burns and also death if inhaled. Some effects may not be noticeable and occur years later.
Personally, I feel pretty much anyone running from a cop and not complying with an order to stop is eligible for tasering. The guy is lucky it was a taser, and not a bullet.
And as for excessive force, (doesn't matter if he was naked or not), if the cop said stop, he should have stopped. Sorry, I have no sympathy for this one.
Now, if he had stopped and surrendered and THEN tasered, that be a whole nother ball o' wax.
