A few days ago on the news, I saw that a police officer accidentally killed a woman while using a pepper paintball gun to stop a riot.  The marker they used was an A-5 with pepper rounds.  The paintball was a normal shell, but filled with pepper like in mace.  Upon impact, the pepper would spray everywhere on the perp and he'd get an eyefull of it.  I was wondering if anyone else has heard of this before?  Also, do you guys think this is a good tactic for police enforcement?

And it wasnt an A5, going by the vendor name, they use procarbines.

Not an idea. Meet lockage.
