Absolutely, this is a taser's intended purpose. This man was committing a dangerous crime that puts the pubilc at risk of injury or death and needed to be subdued. The officer, who was clearly larger and stronger, would most likely have put himself and the subject at greater risk by engaging in a fist fight.
However, what we see time and time again is lazy, out-of-shape and sometimes cowardly peace officers using taser in place of physical confrontation in ludicrous situations.
