Man stunned with Taser at SeaWorld
ORLANDO (AP) – Authorities say a shirtless man on LSD was stunned with a Taser several times after trying to enter SeaWorld Orlando without paying.
An Orange County deputy reports seeing 23-year-old Nicholas Casanova trying to enter the park Tuesday afternoon. When the deputy approached, Casanova left, but then he came back about five minutes later. Casanova and the deputy began struggling, and the deputy shot Casanova with a Taser multiple times.
A report shows that Casanova swung a trash can lid at the deputy and tried to jump in a water feature before he was finally restrained.
A blood test performed later showed he had LSD in his system.
Casanova faces multiple charges, including battery on a law-enforcement officer.
