Kidwell said she waited a long time in the lobby. When she got up to leave, a police officer hit her with the Taser gun. After the incident, Kidwell stated, “I don’t know if he thought I was going to get up and leave or what, but he pulled his gun. I thought it was a gun. I’d never seen a Taser gun in my life and I thought, Oh my God. He’s going to shoot me. He’s going to kill me.” For more information, www.nbc4.tv/news/5492200/detail.html
