DAYTONA BEACH -- A woman using a credit card that did not belong to her was shot with a Taser stunning device inside a Best Buy store Monday afternoon, police said.

The details of the incident were unclear Monday, but an employee at the store said the incident occurred inside the business just before 3 p.m. After the Taser was deployed, police thought the woman was having a seizure and called rescue but then canceled the call.

While he had little information because the incident was still being investigated, Daytona Beach police spokesman Jimmie Flynt said he believes officers were called because the woman may have gotten excited when questioned about the credit card. It's also not clear whether the credit card was stolen, Flynt said.
