This morning I heard a snippet of the news, basically this:
Missouri State Highway Patrol Sgt. Bill Lowe says the 911 call Tuesday night was from Windsor, about 15 miles (24 kilometers) from Clinton. Lowe says it's unclear why they were sent instead to a home in Clinton but when they arrived officers went inside to check if any criminal activity was occurring and were shot, one fatally.
I am very pro law enforcement but it got me thinking about armed men entering my house saying they were police. Things could go ugly quickly. How do you know in the heat of the moment?
The story has continued to evolve and now the "victim of mistaken identity" turns out to be a real dirt bag. Now it looks like he shot first and then they entered.
