Police are out of control. The man has no warrants for his arrest, he is not wanted by any agency, he has no rap sheet other than driving without insurance, the neighbors said they never had a problem with the man yet the stupid gestapo police roll into his house with body armor, fatigues, tactical vest with sidearms, MP5's and M4 carbines. What the hell do the police expect. This was all on hearsay. So some dumb ass can say anything and a judge writes a warrant on that? Then the police play soldier and get caught with their pants down. The police need to smarten up.

SUSPECT...To think (A PERSON) guilty as specified with little or no evidance...To have distrust or dought...One who is under suspicion of a crime!!! What a bunch of BULL___!!!! How many lives have been lost and or ruined because a warrent is being surved, because someone out there suspects illegal activity. Do you break down a door not knowing whats on the other side because someone has a suspicion. Something is seriously wrong with the picture. My heart felt condolences to the family of this officer and his family as well as all the victims of this thouhgtless act which was created out of (suspecion).

The suspect in this case is an Army vet suffering from PTSD who works the grave yard shift and was sleeping when the officers broke in. It also appears the officers may have inadvertantly fired on each other. Still no drugs found in the house. Tell me again how this guy was breaking the law. The police went into his house looking for a fight and apparently screwed it up. If they wanted to arrest him they could of arrested him when he came out to go to work. SAD..

jamestr, armed thugs? Really? Officers announced themselves. Instead of coming to the door he armed himself and waited for them to enter. Your version of middle of the night is a little off, also. It was 8:30 in the evening. I am sure if the man had nothing to hide, he would have opened the door freely. Obviously, this was not the case. Nobody has said drugs were not found and to presume that at this point is nothing more than naive.

Iraqi vet was gunned down in AZ serving a "drug" warrant. No drugs have been found here. When someone kicks your door in in the middle of the night you defend yourself. Usually its the homeowners who die. They aren't there protecting us. They were there hoping to catch somebody doing something wrong in their own home. Sad.

jamestr, You are quick to judge what you know nothing about. It is a shame that the first comment on this incident would come from ignorance. You weren't there. Obviously you do not care for law enforcement and that is your opinion. Instead focus on reality here. A wife and two small children have lost their father and that is sad. There are still 6 people in the hospital that have to recover from their injuries and let’s pray hope they do. RIP to the fallen officer, and condolences to the family of this officer.

Finally a citizen defends himself. Why kick in this mans door in the middle of the night? He had no criminal record. No drugs have been found. This man was defending his life against armed thugs who kicked in his door. Remember what happened in Arizona. Police killed an Iraqi vet serving another of these "drug" warrants. Yet once again no drugs were found.
