A 17-year-old boy is to appear in the Dunedin Youth Court today, following an arrest involving a taser in the central city.
Several members of the public watched on as the teenager struggled to free himself from police and appeared to challenge them to a fight before being taken down this morning.
In a statement, police said the teen, who was wanted for arrest, was located at the intersection of Cumberland and Lower Stuart Sts about 8.20am.
"The young person resisted arrested and a taser was deployed. No one was injured in the incident."
