Atascadero Police had to use a taser twice on a man who they say acted as if he was going to hit them.

It happened in the 8000 block of El Camino Real in Atascadero Wednesday around 11 a.m..

Police say Bruce Sterling Stelma of Atascadero was threatening employees and customers in a Burger King restaurant.

When they arrived, he was yelling and making a fist at them.

Officers ended up using the taser on him, but it still didn't stop him from running across the street.

They then tasered him again, this time causing him to fall to the ground.

He was arrested for felony resisting.
