Care home resident Clare Nowland is not expected to survive the incident, a family friend says.
An elderly woman with dementia is critically ill after allegedly being tasered twice by police in an incident at a care home.
Ms Nowland was tasered in the chest and back about 04:00 local time on Wednesday, family friend Andrew Thaler told the BBC. "I understand and share the community concerns and assure you that we are treating this matter with the utmost seriousness," she said. "She's either one hell of an agile, fit, fast and intimidating 95-year-old woman, or there's a very poor lack of judgement [from] those police officers," PwD President Nicole Lee told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
