Wichita police are wanting to test a virtual reality training simulator and a new Taser, with plans to implement them department-wide if the tests are successful. Officials from Arizona-based Axon Enterprise were in Wichita on Tuesday presenting its products to the department’s highest-ranking officers. Police Chief Joseph Sullivan said the new Taser 10 is safer for both officers and the suspect and the virtual reality would cut down on taking officers off the street for long periods of time for training. Sullivan said they use the current Taser “pretty frequently.”
