Colorado State Patrol Orders 350 TASER X26 ECDs; Orders 21,000 TASER Cartridges

TASER International, Inc. TASR announced two significant orders for TASER® X26™ electronic control devices and TASER cartridges. TASER received the first order from ProForce Law Enforcement, a long-time TASER ECD law enforcement distributor for the western United States. ProForce supports law enforcement with stores in Prescott, AZ and Brea, CA and a territory which spans the entire western United States and Alaska. The order provided the Colorado State Patrol (CSP) with 350 TASER X26 ECDs with extended warranties, 1,400 TASER cartridges and various related accessories. "One of the Guiding Principles of the Colorado State Patrol's Strategic Plan involves the process of leveraging technology in order to provide a higher degree of professional law enforcement services to the public," said Colonel James Wolfinbarger, Chief of the Colorado State Patrol. "The partnership with TASER International should serve our agency's commitment to overall public safety by reducing injuries to suspects and our troopers during potential use of force encounters; from its introduction into the CSP, the TASER X26 has proven itself as a valuable tool and one worthy of a position on our Trooper's duty belt."
