Baltimore County bans personal Tasers

While state law soon will allow ownership of electronic control devices, commonly known as Tasers, Baltimore County has enacted a ban on purchasing the weapons for personal use.

The County Council voted unanimously Tuesday to outlaw the devices and made the law effective Sept. 21. The prohibition adds the newest electronic devices to the county’s existing ban on the use, possession, sale or discharge of a stun gun, officials said. Violators face a $1,000 fine and the possibility of six months in prison. The ban will not apply to law enforcement personnel.
