April 7, 2011- A woman demanded an Atlanta man loan her some money. He refused so she whipped out a Taser and began trying to shock some sense into him. Using ninja moves, he avoided harm and even managed to knock the Taser from her hand. He called police and was arrested for an outstanding warrant. Unlike the Taser, she was not charged.
