Taser launches 'stylish' stun gun

US stun gun maker Taser is unveiling a sleeker version of its controversial weapon aimed at safety and fashion conscious members of the public.



Available in pink, blue, silver and black, the gun fits into a handbag like a mobile phone. It was launched at a Las Vegas electronics fair yesterday.

The new device is likely to be significantly cheaper than the current, larger civilian model - which sells for about $1,000 (£520).

The company has not yet revealed exactly how many volts it will deliver.
