2009-11-06 07:30 ET - News Release

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Nov. 6, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TASER International, Inc. (Nasdaq:TASR), a market leader in digital evidence solutions and electronic control devices (ECDs), announced that on November 4 the Waukesha Police Department in Wisconsin successfully deployed the TASER(R) eXtended Range Electronic Projectile (XREP(TM)) from a TASER(R) X12(TM) Less Lethal Shotgun (LLS) to subdue a suicidal woman.

According to Waukesha Police, officers responded to a report of a suicidal woman with a knife. She was not only threatening her own life, but the life of another. Upon arrival officers received information that the subject of the call was a 47-year-old woman with a history of mental illness.

Officers located the woman in a highly agitated state. In order to safely take her into protective custody officers deployed the XREP. The deployment was successful and no higher forms of force were needed. Neither the woman nor any officers were injured.

"This is a momentous event for our law enforcement partners as this is the first life protected without injury outside of our pilot programs through the combined use of our production advanced wireless TASER XREP and our TASER X12 Less Lethal Shotgun," said Tom Smith, Chairman and founder of TASER International. "We are pleased with the performance of these two life-saving systems integrating successfully. We applaud the Waukesha Police Department's successful intervention to protect life with TASER technology."
