A man was shocked with a Taser gun by police after he approached an officer in a threatening manner, police said Friday.

Rodney Quinn, 49, was pulled over at NW Jackson Avenue and NW 10th Street after committing several traffic violations in his pickup truck, police said.

According to police, Quinn crawled out of his pickup window and yelled, “Are you a homosexual?” and other statements at the officer who pulled him over.

Quinn didn’t respond to orders from police to stay back and continued to approach the officer, police and witnesses said.

Authorities said the officer defended himself by using a Taser gun on Quinn.

Members of a nearby fraternity witnessed the incident and described Quinn approaching the officer and failing to obey orders, according to police.

Quinn was charged with attempted assault on a police officer, interfering with a police officer, attempted intimidation and disorderly conduct.
