A 95-year-old woman with dementia in Australia was in critical condition two days after police tasered her as she approached them with a walking frame and a steak knife in a nursing home. The incident prompted a high-level police internal investigation.

The entrance to the aged care facility Yallambee Lodge in Cooma, Australia is photographed on Friday, May 19, 2023. A 95-year-old woman is in hospital in a critical condition after she was shot with a stun gun in an Australian nursing home as she approached police with a walking frame and a steak knife.

It has also sparked debate about New South Wales state police use of Taser-brand conducted energy devices, or stun guns. They are a less lethal option than firearms, but have occasionally proved more dangerous than other policing options. “At the time she was Tasered, she was approaching police. But it is fair to say at a slow pace. She had a walking frame. But she had a knife. I can’t take it any further as to what was going through anyone’s mind,” Cotter told reporters.
