The 34-year-old victim was walking home when he lost consciousness, then awoke to discover that his wallet and iPod were missing, and that a Taser was on the ground next to him, according to police.
The victim was taken to San Francisco General Hospital because of a complaint of pain to his abdomen, but is expected to survive, police said.
