Police in both Fargo and Grand Forks are trained every year in the use of their taser. Written By: Kevin Wallevand | 10:24 pm, Apr. 13, 2021
FARGO Every year, Sargent Mike Sanden is responsible for training 185 sworn Fargo Police officers who get tested and certified to carry a taser. Our officers are mandated by policy to carry their taser and duty gear in a certain way so, for us, our duty weapon will always be on our strong side, Sanden explained.
After the fatal shooting in Brooklyn Center, there is so much talk about how the officer confused her service weapon for a taser.
