"Stun guns that disable offenders with 50,000-volt shocks will be issued to more than 100 Victorian police officers after the State Government approved their wider use.
A 12-month trial by the elite special operations group found the non-lethal guns were safe for use by other officers.
Use of the Taser guns will be confined to the SOG and critical incident response teams. Chief Commissioner Christine Nixon will decide the extent to which the guns are used in future.
The guns must be used in accordance with police procedure and properly stored when not in use."
