December 29, 2011 Lord & Taylor shoplifter Tasered by police www.privateofficer.com
Lower Merian PA Dec 29 2011 A would-be thief was Tasered at the Lord & Taylor on City Avenue in Bala Cynwyd on Dec. 22, police said.
Two Michael Kors watches were taken from the department store that day, and Demetrius Jerome Kosh, 49, of the 5000 block of Morton Street in Philadelphia was arrested, police said. A Lower Merion police officer happened to be in the store investigating another incident when alerted to a man trying to cut the security cords from at least one watch. Working with store security, the officer detained Kosh, who “developed some kind of medical condition,” prompting a call to have him taken to Lankenau Hospital in Wynnewood.
According to police, a Taser gun was used on Kosh only when he gave authorities “a hard time” while being put into the ambulance.
The medical condition Kosh was said to be suffering from (before being Tasered) was not clarified.
