Alecia Kitts traveled to see her son play football in Logan, Ohio. Footage shows her seated with her family at the proper social distance from other families without a mask on. A police officer approached her and arrested her. After she struggled and resisted arrest, the officer in the video tased her into submission in front of children.
One witness, according to the Ohio Star, said that a child sitting on the metal bleachers got shocked when the charge traveled through the metal.
According to Tiffany Kennedy, the woman who shot the above video, Kitts had not been warned for not wearing a mask prior to the officer approaching her. Kennedy also said that Kitts has asthma and thats why she was not wearing a mask.
There is no reason to tase someone and arrest them for not wearing a mask, Kennedy said.
Kennedy also pointed out the female officer who is shown running toward the Logan officer and Kitts at the end of the video was not wearing a mask pulling one out of her pocket as she was in pursuit.
Alecias mom said that when the officer tased her, the current went through the bleachers and zapped the kid sitting there too.
Kitts appears to be socially distanced from others in the crowd and sitting with her family. There were only 25 or 30 fans from our town on our side, said Kennedy.

Governments Will Impose New Covid-19 Lockdowns/Restrictions If They Think They Can Get Away with It!
This just sends chills up the back of my neck and made the hair on my arms stand up!
I have some African DNA, which meant that those ancestors were slaves. Any documentation shows that they and their descendants were Free Slaves by the 1700s.
So, at one time some of my ancestors were slaves or indentured servants.
As per AG Barr* cited below, now my descendents of all races/ages are losing their freedom due to the illegal lockdowns
*In remarks Wednesday night at an event hosted by Hillsdale College, Barr called the lockdown orders the greatest intrusion on civil liberties in American History since slavery. 9/16/2020

I don’t like mandatory masks, but if they are required by law or by facility policy, you are in violation if you don’t comply and it is left to police to enforce.
Resisting arrest is a stupid game, and getting tased is a common prize for that stupid game.

Just when you start to feel a little sympathy for cops. I guess we can be grateful that she didn't go into the lady's back yard and shoot her dog for good measure.
I will allow for the possibility that there's more to the story.

You are reaching just as much as the rioters. Shame on you.
Kids were holding, not shackled, onto ropes so they don’t wander off long before covid.

Really? Police are LAW ENFORCEMENT, not policy enforcement. Cops weren’t wearing masks, how do you reconcile that?
I see a big suit.

My guess is a POS school teacher or director forced this action, you see this scumbag approach the arrest action, he’s wearing a blue shirt. Yup, BIG lawsuit on the way!

This is why the governor of Ohio was booed at a recent rally when Trump introduced him.
