The identity of the bald-headed cop that used the taser on the protester who was on the ground after being peppersprayed has been released.

The officer's name is Samuel Muoio, and he works at the Zone 4 station in Squirrel Hill. It would be nice if people contacted both the station at Squirrel Hill and Officer Muoio at his home residence to demand an apology and ask that he doesn't attack people again.

There is a zone 4 police station in Squirrel Hill- I believe this is probably the one that Muoio works at- at 5858 Northumberland Street in Squirrel Hill.

If you'd like to contact Officer Muoio himself, you can try his home address:

Officer Samuel Muoio
656 Elmbank Street
Pittsburgh, PA 15226

Let's not be intimidated by this police officer any longer- stand up and demand that he apologize or resign! Please remember to treat the officer all of the respect that is due to someone in his position.
