abstract="The &quot;tranquilizer gun&quot; now used with animals may become useful in restraining violent behavior of persons, especially those with psychiatric disturbances that jeopardize life. This paper reports the gun's first known usage on a human being-a prisoner who developed a psychotic disturbance and was breaking through masonry walls of his jail cell. Another case is reported in which the authors believe the use of a tranquilizer gun could have saved the life of a young man, a former psychiatric hospital patient who was fatally shot when he again became disturbed and resisted apprehension by the police.   <p>Language: en</p>",
