SYRACUSE (AP) -- The sheriff's deputy who zapped a Syracuse-area woman with a stun gun during a traffic stop earlier this year has been suspended without pay.
The Onondaga County Sheriff's Department says Sean Andrews was suspended from his job for 30 days after an administrative hearing Wednesday that's part of ongoing disciplinary proceedings.
Andrews used a Taser to subdue Audra Harmon after pulling her minivan over in a Syracuse suburb in January. The dashboard camera in Andrews's patrol car shows him yanking the 38-year-old mother out of her van and knocking her down with two Taser shots.
Harmon was charged with disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and driving 50 mph in a 45 mph zone. The charges were later dismissed.
Harmon sued the sheriff's department last week.
