Philadelphia chief backs officer who Tasered fan
PHILADELPHIA -- City police are considering whether officers should get involved when unruly but nonthreatening fans sprint onto the field during sporting events, a review begun after a teenager was subdued with a Taser at a Phillies game. A police officer used his stun gun Monday night on 17-year-old Steve Consalvi, who jumped onto the field and ran around in circles in the outfield. Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey examined video of the arrest and felt the officer acted within department guidelines.
