163523P.pdf   10/17/2017  Darrell Frederick  v.  City of Rogers, Arkansas
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  16-3523
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Arkansas - Fayetteville   
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Murphy and Melloy, Circuit Judges] Civil case - Civil rights. Use of a taser to control the estate's decedent was objectively reasonable under the circumstances presented, including the facts that she was armed with a four-inch knife, refused to comply with police orders and posed a threat to the officers, as well as the staff and customers of the convenience store where the incident occurred; the district court did not err in granting the officers' motion for summary judgment based on qualified immunity as Eighth Circuit case law did not place "beyond debate" that the officers violated the decedent's Fourth Amendment rights by discharging a taser under the circumstances.
