Nude teen tasered on golf course

Tampa authorities used a Taser on a man who they say walked naked through a golf course, resisted officers and spit on a paramedic over the weekend.

According to a police report, 18-year-old Jacob Newton was walking naked on the Babe Zaharias Golf Course on Saturday night.

When an officer confronted Newton and handcuffed him Newton allegedly tried to pull a bullet magazine from the officer's gun and became violent. The officer then stunned the 18-year-old with a Taser. Police reported he was stunned two more times while fighting back. He later allegedly spit on a paramedic responding to the
scene.

Newton is being charged with felony battery on a firefighter and felony depriving an officer of means of protection in addition to several misdemeanors. He is free on approximately five thousand dollars bail. Article here.
