Police gun that makes you sick

By Justin Penrose

The latest weapon in the fight against crime is a “sick gun” that makes you vomit.

It looks like a normal torch but sends out rapidly-changing, different-coloured strobelights which blind and disorientate whoever it is shined at. Like the Taser stun gun it is designed as a “non-lethal” weapon to disable suspects so they can be arrested. And it could soon be used by police forces over here. Authorities in the US have already ordered the LED Incapacitator which has a range of 30 feet. It is expected to be used by border guards and air marshals. Its creator, Bob Lieberman, said: “There are often confrontations with illegal aliens or drugs runners.

“You don’t want to hurt or kill them, just take them into custody.” The effects of the gun, which can incapacitate several people at once, wear off after a few minutes.

Developers have come up with the exact frequency and colour for maximum effect. Mr Lieberman said: “There’s one wavelength that gets everyone. We call it the evil colour.”
