Desperado: Cowboy tasered by police after three people ride horses into Safeway and Starbucks during 10-hour town crawl



It may sound like a one-horse town, but events on Sunday proved otherwise in Steamboat, Colorado.

Three people rode their horses into several bars and a supermarket during a ten-hour journey that ended with one cowboy being tasered by police.

Officers used a stun gun to arrest Michael Miller, 44, when he allegedly became confrontational after being asked to dismount his horse.
