Police officers who used a Taser on a man as he had an epileptic fit outside a gym in Greater Manchester are to be investigated.

The 40-year-old man was restrained as he allegedly bit and punched paramedics after collapsing by a gym in Whalley Range in November 2009.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) will investigate whether excessive force was used.
