Police seek bandit who tasered himself

Hamilton police have released a surveillance photo of one of two suspects in a violent home invasion during which one of the bandits tasered himself.

Sergeant Terri-Lynn Collings says investigators are hoping some can identify the man seen standing beside a small silver car in a photo taken near the home that was attacked Sunday, Nov. 1 at 1:30 p.m.

Police believe the incident was the first time  intruders have used a Taser in a violent home invasion in the city and they do not believe it was a random attack.

After giving himself a jolt of up to 50,000 volts, one bandit fell on the floor but quickly recovered, punching a male occupant of the home in the face.
