Naked Prowler Shot in Genitals with Taser
Associated Press
November 22, 2005

FORT MYERS BEACH -- A naked man was "accidentally" shocked in the genitals by a Taser after he was found breaking windows and asking women to touch him inappropriately, police said.

Jeremy J. Miljour, 26, of Bonita Springs, attempted to run when approached by Lee County sheriff's deputies Saturday. When he ignored requested to stop, Deputy Daniel Hollywood shot Miljour with a Taser.

One of the Taser prongs "accidentally" hit Miljour's genitals and got stuck, said Cpl. Matt Chitwood.

Officers are taught to aim for the torso, but it was difficult for officers to aim because Miljour was moving, Chitwood said.

"The Taser is relatively accurate, but when someone is moving like that, it doesn't matter if you have a Taser, or a pistol. (Officers) can't aim," Chitwood said.

Miljour was taken to Lee Memorial HealthPark Medical Center, where he was treated before being taken to the Lee County jail. He is charged with indecent exposure, resisting an officer and criminal damage.
