WINNIPEG — Holding a photo of her son in her hand, Sharon Shymko bows her head and weeps.
She is confused and angry, she says, and she wants to know why her son is dead.
Seventeen-year-old Michael Langan died Tuesday after being hit with a police electronic stun gun, the 22nd person in Canada to die after being tasered.
“This damn machine, it killed my son,” she said. “He would've been here today.
“I think they should ban tasers. They should ban all that crap.”
