Two Indiana police officers, including a captain, have been suspended for slapping and tasering a 10-year-old boy at a day care center.

Quote from the article:

A statement by the Martinsville Police Department today said it "will not condone the unnecessary treatment of any subject, regardless of age," but would not comment on the incident any further until an investigation is complete. The two officers, Capt. William Jennings and Officer Darren Johnson, have been suspended with pay, the department said. The officers were called to the Tender Teddies Day Care Center on Tuesday over reports that a boy was out of control.
