GAYLORD -- State Police have to use a Taser to arrest an Otsego County man.

This comes after investigators say he was involved in several home break-ins.

State Police say the 35-year-old Gaylord man was found by a trooper who was following up on some leads.

They say the man resisted arrest when they tried to take him into custody, so a Taser was used to subdue him.

The suspect wasn't injured, but was taken to Otsego Memorial Hospital as a precautionary measure.

He was then taken to the Otsego County jail where he'll await formal charges.
