Mischievous teen arrested for turning camera into taser
April 4, 2008 – 10:21 amFiled under: Digital Cameras
Regardless of what the UN / Taser thinks, the fuzz around Clinton, Connecticut aren’t too fond of taser-like weapons being in the hands of teenagers. Case in point: a 14-year old with a certain knack for wandering around the intarwebz and filling his brain with all sorts of hacktastic methodologies managed to stumble upon directions (what, these?) for transforming a vanilla disposable camera into something “capable of zapping people with an electrical charge.” School Resource Officer Kyle Strunjo even said that the improvised weapon was “potentially capable of a 600-volt shock,” though it wasn’t actually used on anyone before it got swiped by the boys in blue. Chin up kid, you’ve got a future waiting for you yet.
