YouTube taser pair stunned by weapons charge

22/02/2008 7:29:00 AM.  | Neil Varcoe with AAP
A father and son in the US who allegedly appeared on YouTube stunning each other with a stolen police taser have been charged with weapons possession.

Police in the US state of Wisconsin have charged 22-year-old Paul Crowell and his father Paul Dupey after tracking them down when the clip was posted on the video sharing website.

They say Crowell took the Taser on New Year's Day when police assisted him after his car had gone into a ditch.

The video shows the pair taking turns holding the probes and firing the Taser.

YouTube has since pulled the video down.
