Fayetteville, N.C. — Fayetteville police arrested two students at Ramsey Street High School after a fight Friday, spokeswoman Debbie Tanna said.

Emmanuel Gallardo, 16, of 1616 Barber Ave., and Jhaves Shaque Gilliam, 17, of 127 Buckingham Ave., were charged with resistance, delay and obstruction of an arrest. Both were released to their parents.

Police shot Gallardo with a Taser to break up the fight after he failed to respond to two verbal warnings, Tanna said.

Gallardo's father told WRAL that his son required surgery to remove probes from the Taser that became lodged in his back.

This whole article was posted just for the point about claiming to need surgery to remove the police taser probes. This article is not about 2 boys fighting. It's all about the brutality of law enforcement on children. You haven't heard the last of this. Sidekick February 24, 2009 8:23 a.m. Report abuse

your kidding, right? if not then your part of the problem "oh he's only a 16 year old, please don't hurt him, he doesn't know any better" this is why crime is so high, anyone under 18 knows they can break the law and get just a slap on the wrist, go ask a teen!

If this had been my kid he'd be having surgery to remove a size 13 rocky...oh never mind, I forgot, anything more than a verbal reprimand lands the parents in jail these days....and we wonder why so many youth in this nation are out of control.

Then why didn't they put the brutal police officer's photo on the internet?

"Gallardo's father told WRAL that his son required surgery to remove probes from the Taser that became lodged in his back."

Well, whoopeedeedooo, maybe if his son had **listened** he wouldn't have gotten tased. Then there would be nothing to removed. I see someone that will attempt to turn a $ on this one.
