Pepper spray demo fuels debate in Frederick County sheriff patrols
Deputies subjected to cayenne pepper spray at a training session suffered eye burning and disorientation with some needing towels and water. Sheriff Harbaugh argues the spray reduces the need for baton use while critics and FOP question its necessity and safety. Training officials say decontamination is taught and the device costs eighteen dollars per three shot canister. Public safety bodies say several Maryland agencies already use the spray.
