A Florida woman accusing an officer of excessive force says that the icing on the cake came when the sheriff’s deputy tried to apologize by giving her a “sorry I tased you” baked good.
Stephanie Byron has filed suit against Escambia County Officer Michael Wohler, who she said used a stun gun against her after he came to the apartment complex where she worked in June 2015.

The Pensacola woman claims that Wohler harassed her about her personal life before taking her sweet tea and refusing to give it back.
Her lawsuit says that the deputy fired his Taser at her when she tried to get the drink back, later taking the prods out of her neck and chest as she lie on the ground bleeding.
Byron claims that he tried to make it up to her by creating a frosting rendition of the scene on a cake.
“Sorry I tased you,” reads the blue frosting above stick figures representing Wohler and Byron, who are connected by Taser wires.
Wohler resigned from the agency shortly after the incident.
