A Davis County man who was shocked with Tasers by police between six and 10 times has filed a federal lawsuit accusing officers of violating his civil rights.

The lawsuit names as defendants several law enforcement officers who responded when Kevin Rose, a Davis County sheriff's deputy, pulled over Bruce Harper for having a crooked front license plate.

When Harper pulled over, he exited the car and approached Rose, according to the lawsuit. The officer then pulled a gun and repeatedly told Harper to get back in his vehicle.

Harper turned around and put his hands on his head when Rose asked him to get on his knees, the complaint said. Instead of getting on his knees, Harper faced Rose and asked Rose if he was going to shoot him. Other officers arrived and pulled out their guns as well.

According to the lawsuit, within 30 seconds of responding, Harper was shocked with a Taser and fell to the ground, and the lawsuit says another officer ran to Harper and stunned him a second time. Officers told Harper to turn on his stomach, and the lawsuit states he was shocked while on his stomach.

Harper is asking for $200,000 plus punitive damages and lawyer's fees.
