At 9:15 p.m., two officers arrived at the home. Neither knocked on the front door, Le May said, but one stayed in front while the other apparently scaled a 7-foot privacy fence to get into the backyard.
Why weren't the police notified it was a false alarm? |
The alarm does NOT ring into the police department it normally rings into the security office. SO WHO called the police and told them there was a problem with the location.
I agree there is far too much grey area.
Response in this type of situation is called muscle memory. At our academy, every cadet must shoot a minimum of 2,000 rounds. This is coupled with the number of times they must hit the target in a zone of death. It may not always cause the death of a perp but it usually will stop an attack on a person. Officers use the statement 2 +1 meaning 2 to the chest then if that does not work it will be also 1 to the head. Every officer is trained to protect lives and theirs is always the last one to protect if any person/animal is in danger.
Officers/fire responders are the TRUE American HEROes. Be Safe Always. Pray for you every day.
