The mum of an 11-year-old boy tasered by police during a stand off at a Scots holiday park has spoken out to defend her son.
The youngster, who has learning difficulties and cannot be identified, was taken down by the 50,000 volt stun gun after being surrounded by officers at Craig Tara caravan park in Ayr.
His mum told how her son was holding a butter knife after complaining of not getting a Burger King when the incident unfolded and branded his treatment “disgusting”.
