Donalsonville- A south Georgia sheriff's deputy used a Taser on teenaged girl on Friday.

     It happened when Seminole County deputies responded to a fight between two girls on a school bus near Donalsonville. One deputy threatened to tase the instigator, but the fight continued. Officials say the deputy didn't actually shoot the Taser but removed the barb and shocked the girl for less than a second.

     Deputies handcuffed both girls and removed them from the bus.
