    I can recall at least one case in which the homeowner shot at, and hit, police who no-knocked the wrong house. By some sort of miracle, the homeowner wasn't killed.

    Charges against the homeowner were considered but never went through IIRC.

    Sucks for the officer that got shot (he lived) but charges against that homeowner would have been inappropriate in that case too.

    I'll try to dig up the story...

    Default Even ODMP twisted the truth on this one...I was ten miles away...I know what happened.

    The whole ODMP version is basically a big lie. Guy was asleep, they wanted his son. They ended up with a pipe used for smoking pot. They used a no knock for a pot pipe based on bad information. There was no barricade, drugs, etc.

    This is the one I was thinking of. Two officers were shot, not one as I remembered. Blurs the lines a bit regarding a true no-knock because technically they did knock before forcing entry at the wrong home.
