American Press is reporting that the DeRidder Police Officers Union Local 222 will raffle off a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to Taser a Police Officer.  According to the report, Police Chief John Gott said that the idea came from the officers themselves as a way to raise money for their annual Christmas Toy Drive.

The event is planned for April 15th in the Veterans Park splash pad in Deridder.  A professional will demonstrate the correct way to use the Taser, then the lucky, adult raffle drawing winner will get to jump start the long arm of the law!  Just don't scream "Ride the lightning!"  And if you do, I'd get out of town afterwards to avoid any speeding tickets.
