Utah Man Shot to Death by Police for Raising a Golf Club...

[funkfool]

Having a copy of the warrant at the time of the execution isn't a fatal error.

Well, for the poor golf club wielding resident it quite literally is.

Of course, it would be nice to have it in hand when executing,...

Again... not the best nomenclature to be using to describe this sort of event...
(have what... a nine iron?)
Not to make light of this but... stop now if you are easily offended...
He should have shouted "FORE!"

Terribly sad and wholey avoidable tragedy.

Agreed.
